Andre Villas-Boas urges Gareth Bale to shun Real Madrid and commit to Tottenham
ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS has called on Gareth Bale to end speculation about his future by signing a new contract with Tottenham.
Real Madrid have been linked with a £60million move for the Spurs ace, who has scored 23 goals this season.
Bale is contracted until 2016 but the speculation will continue well in to the summer unless he pens a new deal with the club.
The Spurs boss said: "It would be good for him (to sign a new contract).
It would be excellent and I think a reward for what he has achieved this season
"I think he deserves it for the season he's had.
"Obviously we could put to bed every single speculation that's coming out.
"It would be excellent and I think a reward for what he has achieved this season."
