Tottenham to hijack Mata move?

01 August 2011 - 04:01

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has confirmed that Valencia midfielder Juan Mata is a player he likes, and that he would be interested in signing the Arsenal target this summer.

  • Chelsea urged to sign Man City star on free transfer
  • Chelsea squad want Xabi Alonso as manager
  • Arsenal have already been in discussions with Valencia regarding a move for Mata.



    However, as yet, no fee has been agreed with Valencia.



    Tottenham boss Redknapp confirmed that he was interested: "He is a player that we like. So do Arsenal and so do other clubs. I went to watch him when England Under-21 played Spain and I thought he looked fantastic.



    "The chairman has been dealing with it so where it is I don't know – I don't deal with them transfers. I wouldn't want to say that it isn't happening in case we sign him tomorrow and you all say 'thanks Harry', but he's a player we like."
