Levy set to loosen Spurs’ purse strings

HARRY REDKNAPP has revealed Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy wants him to splash the cash in the January transfer window.

It was widely thought Spurs needed to sell before they could buy this month, but it now appears Levy is ready to bankroll the club’s push for a second straight Champions League campaign and even a tilt at the Barclays Premier League title.

Manager Redknapp is eager to reinforce his squad but is reluctant to make signings just for the sake of it, admitting finding the right players was proving difficult.
