Redknapp rejects exit rumours

Harry Redknapp has denied speculation that he has resigned as Tottenham boss, describing the rumours as "scandalous".

Redknapp was moved to discredit a wave of speculation on Tuesday evening in which it was claimed he had quit with a year still to run on his Spurs contract. Negotiations over a new deal have stalled since the start of the year when the 65-year-old was linked with the then vacant England manager's job.

In the past week Redknapp has made it known he would be uncomfortable heading into the new season without a longer deal while also defending his relationship with chairman Daniel Levy.
