ROBBIE WILLIAMS is at the centre of a multi-million pound record label bidding war after he confirmed he is rejoining TAKE THAT.

The band will release an album together and are set to rake in £75million with a 54-date stadium tour next summer.

But Robbie's record-breaking contract with EMI - signed for a reported £80million in 2002 - is up in October.

And industry insiders say he could make even MORE on a new deal then.

Multi-national record labels including Universal and Sony have begun negotiations with Robbie's management.

An industry source said: "Signing Robbie Williams is the holy grail for labels at the moment.

"He's already struck the biggest record deal in history, so whatever he is offered will have to compare favourably to that.

"He could be the first British artist to ever land a £100million deal."

Robbie, 36, will release an as-yet untitled album with GARY BARLOW, 39, MARK OWEN, 38, HOWARD DONALD, 42 and JASON ORANGE, 40. It is due to rack up the highest number of pre-orders in history.

The band yesterday ruled out playing arenas on their tour - because they're not BIG enough.

Venues like London's O2 and Birmingham's LG Arena have a 20,000 capacity - but Take That need something like Wembley Stadium, which can pack in 100,000, to accommodate all their fans.

An expert said: "They'd have no trouble selling out five nights at

Wembley. To play to an equivalent number they'd have to do 21 nights at the O2."

Other venues on their comeback tour could include Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, Murrayfield in Edinburgh and the Stadium Of Light in Sunderland.
