Tottenham boss Redknapp plays down prospect of striker signing

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has played down the prospect of buying a new striker.

Redknapp has been linked with Nice striker Loic Remy, who was recently being chased by Stoke.

The Spurs boss would not confirm if Remy was a target but hinted if a new striker were to arrive, he would be prepared to let one of Robbie Keane or Roman Pavyluchenko leave.

"In our situation, five strikers would be too many," he said.

"I wouldn't want to put myself in that situation. You'd end up with one or two good ones out in the cold and it would create a bad atmosphere at the club.

"Because when you have too many around and one or two start getting them hump about everything, it can cause upset in the club and the dressing room."
