Redknapp, 65, is aware of ­Chelsea's interest.

A source close to the ­Russian ­billionaire said: "Guardiola is still ­Roman's first choice and Chelsea are trying all the time to get him.

"But he appears to be ­adamant that he wants to take a break and if they cannot get ­Guardiola, ­Harry is next on the list."
