Redknapp: Assou-Ekotto must decide between Birmingham or being 'film' star

Birmingham City boss Harry Redknapp admits he's tried to sign his former Tottenham fullback Benoit Assou-Ekotto.

The former Tottenham and QPR manager was a guest on the Spurs Show podcast, and he revealed a strange stumbling block in his bid to sign the veteran full back.

"What a good player.

"He could well end up in the Birmingham colours next year, Benoit."
