Barcelona will be priced out of a move for Gareth Bale, according to his agent.
Speculation over the Tottenham winger's future has intensified in the hours since Harry Redknapp's exit from White Hart Lane.
But the good news for Spurs supporters is that a £40m asking price will force Barca to look elsewhere for a left-sided player.
Agent Jonathan Barnett said: "I think it's too expensive for the club. To my knowledge, Barcelona have not made any offer for him.
"If interested, they would have to put money on the table and then start talking. But it seems that the club is working on the signing of Jordi Alba, a cheaper option."
Bale signed a long-term deal earlier this year, but Barnett reckons the lure of Champions League football away from Spurs may prove too strong.
He said: "Yes, it is clear that this is a problem."
