Harry Redknapp Not Moving to Chelsea

Harry Redknapp has shot down rumours that he is set to replace Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea.

The Tottenham Hotspur manager has been linked with the manager role at London rivals - despite Ancelotti having not yet been given the sack.

The Chelsea bosses future has been questioned after his side were dumped out of the Champions League by Manchester United - which would leave them without a trophy this season.

But Redknapp insists that he has not spoken to Chelsea and has not interest in the stories that are flying around.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror the Spurs boss said: "I don't take a lot of notice. I just get on with it. It's speculation.

"I've never spoken to anyone from Chelsea. No-one's come to me and said that Chelsea are interested in me or anything else.

"I've got a job to do here. I love it here. I'm happy here."

It's been a great season for Tottenham having reached the quarter finals of the Champions League - despite it only being their first time in the competition.

And Redknapp is confident that with a little more work at the squad then the side can be title contenders.

"I keep saying, this club isn't that far away - if they want to push on - from winning the championship," he said.

"You can't stand still. It means improving. Better players make you a better team. With one or two additions, I think we can go on and push for the title.

"Everyone will go at it in the summer. Arsenal will. Liverpool will - Liverpool are going to be a team to be reckoned with next year.

"They've been out of the Champions League, but I don't see that happening again after next season. With Kenny Dalglish there, I think they'll have a real go for it.

"If you want to be a top club, you need top players. There's no other way of doing it. There's no magic formula."

Tottenham are back in action tomorrow night as they face Arsenal at home. They are just three points behind Manchester City - who have the fourth and final Champions League spot for next season.
