Gareth Bale signs contract extension until 2022.

Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale has signed a new contract extension with the European Champions until 2022. The Wales Star joined Real Madrid from Totenham Hotspur for a then world record fee of 85.3M Pounds and has since gone on to score 62 goals in 135 appreances for the Los Blancos team. Bale has won numerous trophies since signing with Real Madrid including 2 Champions League trophies in just his three years at the club.

Bale joins a host of other Real Madrid players to sign a contract extension as Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and Lucas Vasquez have already signed an extension.
Bale has been linked with a host of Premier League clubs but this new deal would surely put a stop to it as the 5 and a half year contract would see Bale remain with Real Madrid well into his 30's.
Real Madrid have been keen to tie down their key players to new deals as they have been hit with a transfer Ban alongside their city rivals Atletico Madrid that would keep them from signing any player for the year 2018.
Cristano Ronaldo and Pepe are two other names expected to sign new deals in the coming weeks.
