Harry Redknapp rejects Dubai speculation

Veteran manager Harry Redknapp has dismissed speculation linking him with a move to Dubai-based Al Jazira Club.

The 68-year-old was reportedly in talks with the UAE outfit earlier this week, but the former Tottenham Hotspur manager took to Twitter to rubbish the rumour.

He wrote: "Not spoken to anyone from Dubai. Load of cobblers."

On Thursday, Redknapp also rejected the notion that he was in the running to replace Steve McClaren at Newcastle United.

Redknapp, who led Spurs to a Champions League quarter-final in 2011, has been out of work since quitting Queens Park Rangers in February of this year.
