Tottenham boss Redknapp: Llorente? I have already been mugged once in Spain!

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has played down talk of signing a new striker today.

Spurs have been linked with Newcastle United centre-forward Andy Carroll.

Redknapp said: "I never made a bid for Andy Carroll. Maybe the chairman did but I never did. Nobody has told me we've made a bid."

Athletic Bilbao's Fernando Llorente is another potential target but Redknapp denied suggestions he had made a bid for the player despite reports in Spain suggesting otherwise.

"Fernando Llorente? No chance. I'm not going back to Spain any more. Definitely not," said Redknapp, referring to his mugging before watching last week's Madrid derby.
