Bale out doesn't appeal to Redknapp
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has told Inter Milan that Gareth Bale is not for sale at any price.
Reports on Thursday claimed Inter were determined to land Bale this summer in a £40million deal after being impressed by the Welsh winger in the Champions League games between the two sides this season.
Bale scored a superb hat-trick in the 4-3 defeat at the San Siro last October before running rings around Brazil full-back Maicon to inspire Tottenham to a 3-1 win at White Hart Lane in the reverse fixture the following month.
The 21-year-old, who arrived at Tottenham from Southampton in 2007 for £5million, signed a new four-year contract in May last year after reports of Inter's interest first began to emerge.
Redknapp insists Bale is too valuable to sell and is adamant any bid for his star man would be rebuffed.
"We won't be selling Gareth Bale in the summer, it's up to the chairman but I'd be very surprised if we were interested in selling him at any price," Redknapp said. "You have special players in your team and if we're going to be a top team you've got to keep your top players, you can't be selling Gareth Bale."
