Redknapp reiterates stance on Tottenham's Modric, Bale and Sandro

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp is standing strong on in-demand trio Luka Modric, Gareth Bale and Sandro. The three Spurs players are all being linked with potential summer moves but the boss has made it clear that there will be no sales out of White Hart Lane.

"It's been busy - I've been busy doing nothing really, we haven't got anywhere," he told Sky Sports News.

"There's been lots of phone calls, lots of talk in the newspapers but we're really not close to making any signings and certainly not looking to sell any of our better players.

"We're not selling Luka Modric, we're not selling Gareth Bale, we're not selling Sandro.

"We are looking to build a team at Tottenham, not dismantle one. If we're going to push on as a football club we need to keep them players and we need to add one or two other top players to them if we're looking to have a chance of ever getting back in the Champions League again.

"So we're not looking to sell players - that would be a massive backward step for the club."
