Police and firefighters launched a two-day search involving a helicopter and drones last week before calling the operation off late on Thursday.
His family reported him missing on April 30.
Catalan news website El Caso reported on Sunday night that investigators revealed the Brit travelled to France via the Eurotunnel on May 1 and spent time in Portugal and Spain before his mobile phone lost signal near Tossa de Mar.
A spokesperson for the Mossos d’Esquadra regional police described the two-day search: “It was a land, sea and air search which took place on Wednesday and Thursday.”
She added: “The investigation into the missing man’s whereabouts is continuing.”
It is not clear what Catalan police are now doing as part of their investigation.
The Mossos d’Esquadra force also led the investigation into rugby player and X Factor star Levi Davis who disappeared in Barcelona in 2022.
