I’m cheering on Bayern, says frank Redknapp

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp admits he will put all family connections to one side and is praying for a Bayern Munich victory in the Champions League final next weekend.

Redknapp has got a ticket for the showpiece event in Munich and would normally have been cheering on his nephew Frank Lampard, who will be playing at the heart of the Chelsea midfield.

But with Arsenal securing third place, Tottenham need a Bayern Munich victory to confirm their place in the Champions League next season. Redknapp is desperate to see his side make a return to the biggest cup competition in Europe and will be hoping Chelsea fail to lift the trophy.
