Gareth Bale to snub Barcelona

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Gareth Bale is ready to turn down a move to Barcelona in the summer.

The Welshman, whose contract expires in 2015, has reportedly been watched a number of times by the Spanish giants this season.

However, the 22-year-old is keen to stay at White Hart Lane for at least another year, according to The Mirror.

Bale moved to Spurs from Southampton in 2007.
