Spurs were apparently prepared to part company with Rose for a fee of around £38m.

But Rose rejected the opportunity to earn £285,000-a-week after tax in favour of staying at White Hart Lane to help Spurs push for silverware.

He is thought to earn a relatively meagre £30,000-a-week before tax at present, but was keen to remain part of Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs project.

Rose joined Spurs from Leeds United in a £1m deal in July 2007. He has since made 141 appearances for the north London side and has established himself as a regular starter for the past four seasons.
