Gareth Bale will make a decision on his club future by February after telling Wales he is ready to play on with them.
Bale achieved one of his greatest ambitions by leading Wales to their first World Cup since 1958. Despite a disappointing showing in Qatar by Bale and the Dragons, the veteran, 33, has pledged to continue playing for his country if needed.
Boss Rob Page and Football Association of Wales officials feel Bale can still play a huge role as a squad member helping nurture their young players even if he is more of a substitute in future.
