Redknapp going nowhere

Harry Redknapp has insisted he has no intentions of leaving Portsmouth. Both Newcastle and Tottenham had been chasing the Portsmouth coach during the last season, but now Redknapp has insisted his future lies only at the South Coast club.

"Any unfulfilled dreams I have left in football can be achieved here," Redknapp told the Sunday Mirror.

"I turned down two exceptional offers in the last 12 months and that was a clear indication of where my heart and mind was.

"It wouldn't make an ounce of difference who came in for me now. This is where I belong and this is where I want to finish.

"It would have been easy to walk away in the past year and I don't think anyone would have had any real complaints.

"But, as tempting as the offers were, I couldn't have lived with myself. There would have been a massive sense of betrayal.

"I had to take everything into consideration and I can't deny it led to more than the odd sleepless night.

"But this is my team and my club and I don't want to stop at winning the FA Cup, I want to build and move on."
