Alberto Contador will meet with the Spanish prime minister as he returns home after winning his third Tour de France title yesterday.



Contador’s success represents Spain's latest sports success after the country’s first World Cup title and Rafael Nadal's wins at Wimbledon and the French Open.



Contador was greeted by hundreds of supporters from his hometown Pinto, just outside Madrid, when he arrived today at the Spanish capital's airport.
