Birmingham City are the latest club to be linked with a move for the coveted Bristol City man.
Redknapp has already added Barnsley’s Marc Roberts to his Blues back line, but is still said to want another body in there, having lost out on John Terry to Aston Villa.

He would not, however, be the only manager to show interest in Flint this summer, with Leeds United, Villa and Derby County among the many clubs linked with moves for the 28-year-old.
Nevertheless, Bristol City are yet to receive any bids for the player, manager Lee Johnson revealed on Tuesday, and would be loathe to lose him.
The tabloid claimed at the time that the Robins were ‘likely’ to lose the Derbyshire native, for whom a move further north could appeal.
According to The Mirror, Birmingham are close to making Middlesbrough winger Stewart Downing their fifth summer addition, after Craig Gardner, David Stockdale, Cheikh N’Doye and Roberts.
