Former Chelsea coach Ray Wilkins doubts Tottenham can resist a major Barcelona offer for Gareth Bale. Wilkins believes the White Hart Lane club will find it hard if Barca come knocking.

"When someone like Barcelona sits up and takes notice it makes you realise that you are playing some good football, and Gareth Bale is playing some extraordinary stuff," Wilkins told talkSPORT.

"Coughing up £35million is a lot of money. In the January transfer window it will be very interesting to see if Tottenham can turn that down as it is an extreme amount of money.

"Barcelona are the best footballing team on the planet but would Gareth Bale be going there to play league football or Champions League football? That's the question.

"Unfortunately, Spain now has taken over the mantle of Scotland and there are only two teams that can win the title, Real Madrid and Barcelona. The rest are easy games [for those two]."
