I've had no England talks, insists Harry Redknapp

Julian Bennetts11 April 2012

Harry Redknapp has laughed off suggestions he will be appointed England manager before Euro 2012 and says he has had no contact with the Football Association about succeeding Fabio Capello.

The Tottenham boss is the favourite to replace the Italian after the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine.

And reports over the weekend suggested the FA were considering installing the 64-year-old as national team boss before the tournament, despite Capello taking them to within a point of qualification.

But Redknapp said: "Until I get offered the job I wouldn't have a decision to make but at the moment I haven't spoken to anybody about being England manager.

"I want to see England do well, I want Capello to get them to the Euros and I want them to win it.

"And if they win it under Capello, I definitely won't get it."

And Redknapp insists he is happy at White Hart Lane. He said: "I love doing what I'm doing. I enjoy my job at Tottenham. I'm lucky to be managing a top club, a great club, and I love it."
