Tottenham boss Redknapp ready to step in for Rossi after Barcelona pull out

Tottenham are ready to try again for Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi. The Daily Mail says Tottenham are ready to rekindle their interest in Villarreal's £35million-rated striker Rossi after his agent said a proposed move to Barcelona was 'definitely off'.

However, manager Harry Redknapp will face a fight with Atletico Madrid who have earmarked Rossi as a possible replacement for Sergio Aguero who is being courted by Juventus, Real Madrid and Chelsea.

Rossi's agent Federico Pastorello said: "It's a deal that is definitely off. We are now evaluating a number of options for Rossi's future, but we can't rule out the possibility that he could remain at Villarreal. How much will he cost? His valuation is that of a top player."
