Bale’s Barca link is news to Redknapp
Spanish newspaper Marca yesterday suggested Spurs had sanctioned Bale’s departure to the current European champions for a fee of £32 million.
Bale admitted last month that he would not be able to turn down a move to the Catalan giants and Barca defender Dani Alves said in a recent interview that the Welshman would fit in well at the Nou Camp.

“I wouldn’t think there is the slightest bit of truth in that. Not a chance, I wouldn’t have thought.”
Bale shot to prominence with a series of stunning displays in the Champions League last season and has caught the eye again for Spurs this term.
