Barca bid to test Spurs’ resolve?

So far, any stories about a possible departure for Gareth Bale seem to have been little more than rumour, but if you believe the latest reports, Spurs' resolve is about to be tested by an official bid from Barcelona.

The claim has come out of Spain where reports suggest that Barcelona's technical advisor Albert Valenti was at the Fulham game to run the rule over Bale, who could be seen as a long term replacement for Barca left back Eric Abidal.
