Tottenham boss Redknapp: I want to buy Aguero

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp admits he wants to buy Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero. Redknapp has confirmed he was in the market for a new striker during January.

He said: "We were looking at an extra striker in the January transfer window like Andy Carroll or Sergio Aguero, but it's ­impossible. We could never have afforded them. We're not going to get ­Carroll or Aguero ­because we need a stadium that will hold 60,000 people so we can compete and you can't ­expect the owners to keep funding everything.

"If you want the top ­players you need to pay top money and you need a stadium that will hold the crowds - and you will get crowds at ­Tottenham.

"We would sell out every week; 60,000 would be no problem for us, we have 26,000 on the waiting list for season tickets."
