Gareth Bale is top of Barcelona's wishlist
BARCELONA are looking at ways of raising cash to fund a massive summer bid for Tottenham’s £50million-rated Gareth Bale.
European champions Barca will consider selling youngsters Cristian Tello, Isaac Cuenca and Jonathan dos Santos on Oriol Romeu-style buy-back deals after putting Bale at the top of their wishlist.
As first revealed by the Daily Express, Barca have watched Wales winger Bale on several occasions this season. They have also made discreet enquiries about how much he might cost.
Club chiefs Sandro Rosell, Andoni Zubizarreta and Josep Bartemou have discussed Barca’s transfer strategy and how they might approach their Bale chase.
Coach Pep Guardiola has made signing a new left-sided player, who can operate at both ends of the pitch, his main priority.
Barca realise the need to bring in significant cash to finance a realistic offer. Spurs would need an enormous amount of convincing to sell and the highly-rated trio of Tello, Cuenca and Dos Santos could hold the key.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have tracked forwards Tello and Cuenca, both 20, but Spurs would be given first option if they agreed to do business on Bale.
if Bale is to join Barcelona, then they would be unbeatable next season.
