Gareth Bale says that he wants to help Tottenham Hotspur get into the Champions League and is not thinking about a move away.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Gareth Bale has insisted that he is not thinking about a move away from White Hart Lane this summer.

The Welshman, who won multiple awards for his performances last season, has been heavily linked with a switch to La Liga giants Real Madrid, despite the fact that they are yet to launch an official approach for the player.

However, Bale is adamant that he is keen on helping Spurs try to earn a place in the Champions League next term.

"I am hoping to improve from last season, every season I want to keep improving and keep becoming a better player, I have more experience now," Bale told Sky Sports News.

"For me I need to keep working hard on the training pitch and on game days and hopefully progress as a player and become even better.

"I think everyone at the club wants us to finish in the top four, the club wants to be in the top four and we need to go one better this season and finish in the top four."

Spurs missed out on a place in Europe's elite competition to Arsenal on the final day of last season.
