Jamie Redknapp has said on Sky Sports News (5:12pm, April 19, 2021) that he is not sure if Harry Redknapp will return to Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham sacked Jose Mourinho as their first-team head coach today, with Ryan Mason placed in charge of the side for the time being.

Earlier today, former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara said on Sky Sports News that club chairman Daniel Levy should bring in Redknapp tomorrow along with Robbie Keane.

Redknapp was the manager of Spurs from 2008 until 2012, while Keane played for the North London club from 2002 until 2008 and then from 2009 until 2011.

The former forward has also been the assistant manager of the Republic of Ireland national team and the assistant boss at Middlesbrough.

Former Tottenham midfielder Redknapp has said that he is not sure if his father, Harry, will be back at Spurs.

Redknapp said on Sky Sports News (5:12pm, April 19, 2021): “I don’t know. I am laughing, but I don’t think he could do it. I am not sure.”

Harry Redknapp back to Tottenham Hotspur?

It is hard to see Redknapp back at Spurs anytime soon. With Tottenham to play in the European Super League – if it goes ahead – club chairman Daniel Levy will probably want a bigger name.

Redknapp did well during his time at Tottenham, but Levy is likely to opt for a young(er) and ‘modern’ manager to take the team forward.
