City refute Redknapp 'transfer bullying' claim

Manchester City have consulted their legal team regarding Harry Redknapp’s claim that they stopped Tottenham from trying to sign Craig Bellamy in January 2009.

Ahead of tonight’s top-four clash between the two clubs at Eastlands, Redknapp said City had threatened to blow Tottenham’s bid for Wilson Palacios out of the water unless they stood back and allowed the Blues to sign Bellamy from West Ham.
