EXCLUSIVE – Harry Redknapps uncover SECRET Phone call conversation he had with Ex Tottenham board member

Former Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy would have attempted to convince Harry Redknapp to return to the club for the final stretch of the season in a bid to steer Spurs away from relegation, had he still been in charge in north London.

That claim comes from Redknapp himself, who revealed that he recently spoke with Levy about the club’s troubling situation. Levy spent more than two decades overseeing Tottenham Hotspur before stepping down from his role last September.

Tottenham currently find themselves battling to avoid relegation following another disappointing Premier League campaign. Their top-flight status is under increasing threat after the decision to replace Thomas Frank with Igor Tudor failed to spark an improvement in results. Tudor has suffered defeat in all four matches since taking charge, with both performances and confidence within the squad continuing to decline.

Although the former Spurs boss played down the likelihood of returning, Redknapp revealed that Levy admitted he would have tried to bring him back if he were still at the helm.

“I actually got a phone call from Daniel last week,” Redknapp told talkSPORT.

“I think I’d only spoken to him once since leaving the club all those years ago. I was driving when my phone rang and it was Daniel Levy. I thought that was a bit strange.

“We ended up chatting for about half an hour. He explained what happened to him and how he ended up being pushed out, which was quite surprising.

“And he did say to me: ‘If I was still there now — and I’m not just saying this — I’d bring you back until the end of the season, Harry.’ So that would have been interesting.”

Despite Levy’s comment, Redknapp admitted he does not expect a call from Tottenham’s current leadership.

With the veteran manager seemingly out of contention, another well-known figure from the club’s past, Jürgen Klinsmann, has suggested he would be open to answering an emergency call from Spurs.

Speaking to ESPN, Klinsmann said: “Who wouldn’t want the job? It’s Tottenham. Whoever takes over needs to be someone who can emotionally connect with everyone at the club — someone who understands its culture and its people.

“To escape this situation, they need to build a strong fighting spirit — something tough and gritty. It’s less about tactical brilliance and more about uniting everyone, lifting morale, and making sure the whole club pulls together to avoid dropping into the EFL Championship.”
