Harry Redknapp has confirmed today that Spurs are still interested in signing Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, even after the arrival of Peter Crouch.
“It is definitely not a no-go,” he said. “It is still a possibility. If you look at his goalscoring record, it is incredible. If he is available then again he is a player that interests me. I think if any top-class player becomes available then you have to be interested and if Darren Bent does go then maybe we will be interested.
“You cannot have too many good players. Competition for places is what it is all about. Look at Manchester United, you could pick two teams from their squad last year.”
Amazingly, Redknapp reckons he’d be happy to have Huntelaar, Defoe, Keane, Crouch and Pavlyuchenko all at the club next season.
“I don’t care,” he said. “It’s not about keeping them happy, they have to keep me happy and the fans happy – that is what they are paid to do. It’s up to them as they have got to fight to play, it’s all about competition for places.”
We at Tottenham Blog don’t believe this. We reckon that if Klaas comes, it’ll spell the end for Pav or Keane but lets see.
