Danny Rose has reportedly rejected a move to Shanghai
Danny Rose has impressed for Tottenham over the last few season and is regarded as one of the best attacking full-backs in the Premier League.
His fine performances are said to have caught the attention of Chinese Super League club Shanghai SIPG.
However, The Sun claim the England international has turned down a move to the Far East in order to win major trophies with Spurs.

The report says Rose rejected a £14.5million-a-year contract in order to stay with the White Hart Lane club.
The defender reportedly wants to remain part of Mauricio Pochettino's side in order to have a shot at winning the Premier League title.
He could have earned a staggering £285,000 a week after tax at Shanghai, dwarfing the five-year deal he signed at Spurs last September.
Sources close to the club claim Shanghai were prepared to offer Spurs a £38million fee to sign Rose.
However, the left-back has no interest in leaving the north London club and he admitted this week he is fully focused on Spurs.
"I can go to speak to him [Pochettio] about a lot of things," Rose said.

"When I am 34 or 35, I want to look back and see I have won something.
"That is the next step for this team and to do it we have to keep everyone for as long as possible.
"I am not going to be distracted by anything else."
