Tottenham boss Redknapp confident keeping Man Utd away from Lennon

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is confident of keeping hold of Aaron Lennon. Lennon has been a long-term target for Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson, ever since his move to Spurs from Leeds United.

Redknapp feels they would be able to keep the England winger at the club if there is interest from so-called bigger teams.

"Tottenham is a big club," Redknapp said.

"Man United have (Antonio) Valencia who they got in the summer so they don't need a right-winger. This is a big club.

"He's still learning the game and getting better and better. He can still keep improving.

"He is a fantastic talent but knows himself he is not the finished article. There is still a long way to go but he's getting there."
