Is this Mitchell's replacement?
Apparently, he scouted Modric for Spurs and also scouted Suarez before Redknapp turned him down.

No he didn'tand also scouted Suarez before Redknapp turned him down.

Redknapp said:"We kept looking at him but people thought he couldn't play up as a striker,"
"They said he's like Rafa [van der Vaart] and you can't have him and Rafa or you'd have two players who want to drop deep, so that was the problem. We were looking for someone to play up front with Rafa"
I really don't fucking care about the Suarez stuff. I'm absolutely happy that he never touched this club.If he was involved in the final recommendation on Suarez he needs shooting
Agreed. But we're not talking about Suarez, we're talking about a group of professionals who somehow told Redknapp that Suarez would never be able to play as a striker.... Frighteningly incompetent!I really don't fucking care about the Suarez stuff. I'm absolutely happy that he never touched this club.
Suarez is a racist.rudd says of the two:
‘They asked me all kinds of questions about Suarez, so I just point blank said: “You have to snap him up, without any hesitation, in a heartbeat.”
click bait that isn't it? Could quite easily just be them keeping their cards to their chest - don't want to tell everyone you are desperate for a player do you.
Harry Says:

Looks like his gardening leave has come to an end. Wonder if the Lookman loan was something to do with him?
