Harry Redknapp: I would go back to Spurs but I doubt it is going to happen

Harry Redknapp has played down his chances of getting the Tottenham job as pressure builds on interim head coach Igor Tudor after the latest awful defeat of his short tenure.

Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust (THST) called for “emergency action” after a chaotic 5-2 loss at Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.

The club confirmed Tudor was set to speak at a scheduled pre-match press conference on Friday ahead of Sunday’s trip to Liverpool, but a run of four straight defeats under the 47-year-old has already made his position close to untenable.

Ex-Spurs boss Redknapp does not expect to get a call, though, telling the Press Association at Cheltenham: “I’ve been asked a few times if I’d go back to Spurs and it’s probably not going to happen, is it?

“Would I go back? Of course I would, but I doubt very much it’s going to happen.

“They’ve got it all on to stay up, it’s going to be hard. I’m looking at their fixtures and (Nottingham) Forest are playing all right, West Ham are playing very well, it’s going to be tough for Tottenham.

“My only concern at the minute is The Jukebox Man (his horse) in the Gold Cup, I’m nothing to do with Spurs any more.

“They haven’t been in touch, not at all. I hope Spurs stay up and I hope West Ham stay up.”

Records tumbled for Spurs on an extraordinary evening in Madrid where young goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky was withdrawn after 17 minutes due to two terrible errors.

Tonight’s performance and result is a total disgrace. It’s symptomatic of the abysmal state of things at Spurs right now. From the January transfer window to the management appointments, the lack of leadership and the total absence of anyone with a Spurs pedigree informing these…
