Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is ready to move for Manchester City rebel Carlos Tevez. The Sunday Mirror says Tevez's days at City are numbered after a fall-out with boss ­Roberto Mancini.

But Redknapp is not ­bothered about Tevez's ­baggage and would have no hesitation taking him to White Hart Lane in January.

He said: "I would take him if he were available for sure. If Manchester City want to let me have him on loan and subsidise it, I'll take him tomorrow.

"Say what you like he's a world-class player and the one criticism you can't level at him is he doesn't work his socks off when he plays.

"He's a ­handful and I'm only ­interested what he does when he plays. World-class players are in very short supply."
