Tottenham plan to offer manager Harry Redknapp a new deal to keep him from England's clutches. The Sunday Mirror says Redknapp, 64, is seen as the FA's number one choice to replace Fabio Capello when he stands after Euro 2012.
Redknapp's current contract has 18 months to run. And Spurs want to ensure they have their popular boss tied into a longer term deal and hope he'll turn his back on any approach from the Three Lions.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has prepared the new deal and formal talks are set to open shortly.
