No Gareth Bale to Barcelona deal - Spurs boss Harry Redknapp

Reports in the Spanish media on Friday suggested the Catalan side were set to pay 40m euros  for the Welsh winger, 22.
"I wouldn't think there's a slightest bit of truth in that," said Redknapp. "Not a chance I wouldn't have thought."

Bale has been picked in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year in each of the last two seasons.

The Spurs boss insists the north London club want to keep their best players in order to qualify for the Champions League on a regular basis.

"If you don't then where are you going?" said the 65-year-old. "You can forget about Champions League football in the future if you don't keep your best players and add to them, never mind selling them off."
Tottenham will secure a top-four finish by beating Fulham at White Hart Lane in their final game of the Premier League season on Sunday.
Redknapp's side must match fifth-placed Newcastle's result at Everton and could still finish third above neighbours Arsenal depending on the outcome of the Gunners' trip to West Brom.
"We've got to try and get a win ourselves - that's all we can do," said Redknapp, who added he would not be keeping track of Sunday's other scores.continue reading
