Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp doesn't believe West Ham United's ownership problems will affect them long-term.

"If the club needs to sell then they need to sell but hopefully they don't because it is a great club with great support," Redknapp said. "Look at them, even when they went down they got 30,000 people there.

"It's a real football club. Look at the history and the players they produce.

"If the people who have it now can't afford to keep it going, someone will come along to buy it because it is a great club for someone to take on."
