Tottenham boss Redknapp plans West Ham raid for Green, Upson

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is planning a double-raid on former club West Ham United.

The Daily Mail says Redknapp is planning to return to West Ham when the transfer window reopens next month and make a £16million offer for Matthew Upson and Robert Green.

The Tottenham manager, who guided his side to a 2-0 victory at Upton Park on Monday night, has identified Green as the perfect replacement for the error-prone Heurelho Gomes and believes his former club would struggle to resist an offer when they remain in a major financial crisis.

The same goes for Upson, who would be valued at £10m in the offer, with the defender just as important to Redknapp because Ledley King and Jonathan Woodgate are so prone to injury.
