Spurs not chasing Beckham but keen on Crouch, says Redknapp


Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp says there is no chance of the club signing England midfielder David Beckham.

Spurs have been linked with the LA Galaxy midfielder and Beckham is desperate to play in Europe when the MLS season finishes to boost his chances of playing in the 2010 World Cup finals.

But, speaking after last night's 4-0 friendly win over Peterborough, Redknapp said: 'David Beckham is a fantastic player, and an amazing professional.

'There's no truth in those stories. No enquiries have been made by us.

'I don't know where those stories came from.'

Redknapp did admit he is interested in signing Portsmouth striker Peter Crouch, thouhg, who would cost around £12m.

#Crouchy, I have signed several times, and if Portsmouth want to sell we could be interested,' Redknapp told Sky Sports.

'It depends on everything about price etc, but everyone has their price and it would be up to the chairman and Portsmouth to sort out a price. I love Crouchy but we will have to wait and see.'

Sunderland were also chasing Crouch but pulled out of the race yesterday as the player is keen to stay in the south of England.

Darren Bent, Jermain Defoe, Luka Modric and Roman Pavlyuchenko got the goals last night for Spurs.
