Redknapp Jnr Rules Out Spurs Return

Posted on 31. Oct, 2008 by Milox in Premiership

FORMER Spurs midfielder Jamie Redknapp insists he will not take up a coaching role under his father, Harry, at White Hart Lane.

Speculation had been growing that the ex-England international would be tempted to form a father-son connection and bolster the Redknapp revolution, but he has ruled out the possibilty, insisting he is happy working as a pundit for Sky.

“Why do some take the plunge, while others steer well clear? I can only speak from experience: I feel very lucky and privileged to have a job at Sky that enables me to remain close to the game,” he explained in his Daily Mail column.

“I still have a feeling of excitement and anticipation approaching a big game.

“It’s not the same as playing and being in the heat of battle but it’s the next best thing. Andy Gray, Alan Hansen, Andy Townsend and Alan Shearer will tell you the same.”
