Harry open to new Spurs deal

Harry Redknapp says he is open to the prospect of discussing a new deal that would see him stay with Tottenham and snub England.

Redknapp is the overwhelming favourite to become the next England boss, but Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is keen to keep hold of his man after seeing the club’s progression since he took over in 2008.

Redknapp admitted when Fabio Capello walked out on England that he would consider taking the job if the FA came calling, conceding he was “flattered” to be linked with what he considers the “ultimate” job for any English manager.
