Barcelona looking to test Tottenham’s resolve
Barcelona are set to test Tottenham’s resolve with a summer bid for Gareth Bale, according to The Telegraph.
The Welsh winger has shot to superstardom over the last 24 months, with excellent displays in England and in the Champions League last season.
The current PFA Player of the Year is one of a number of Spurs stars being tracked by bigger clubs, and it is believed that the European champions are ready to make a move for Bale.
The Camp Nou outfit are said to want to strengthen defensively in the summer, and the versatility of Bale is believed to be a key attraction for the Spanish giants.
Barcelona have identified Bale as a possible replacement at left-back for the ill Eric Abidal, who recently had a liver transplant for the second time.
Tottenham are sure to slap a hefty price tag on their star man, with Daniel Levy previously stating that they wouldn’t sell Bale for less than £50 million.
