Huddersfield midfielder Mooy belongs in Premier League - Redknapp

Huddersfield midfielder Aaron Mooy belongs in the Premier League, according to former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp.

The Terriers were relegated to the Championship after last weekend's loss to Crystal Palace.

Newcastle United and West Ham United have been linked with the Socceroos star, and Redknapp believes he deserves to be playing in the top flight.

"He's a fantastic footballer who can play in the Premier League, no problem," Redknapp told The World Game.

"I don't know how he'll see his future, whether he feels like staying on at Huddersfield and trying to get back up again or whether he'll be looking to move onto a Premier League club straight away.

"I certainly believe he belongs at that level...he's already showed that this season and also last.

"Teams like the West Hams and Newcastles would be a good fit for him.

"No disrespect, he's probably not going to be on the radar of a Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea or Tottenham, but he could certainly do a top job for any one of those next tier of teams in the league who are looking for quality in the middle of the park."
