Harry Redknapp unlikely to be made West Ham boss again

Former West Ham boss Harry Redknapp is unlikely to return to the Hammers anytime soon, according to ExWHUEmployee.

With Manuel Pellegrini under pressure at the helm of the Hammers, many names have been thrown about as to who could replace the Chilean.

Redknapp has been off of these names, although he has always been an outside chance.

However, speaking on the West Ham Way podcast, ExWHUEmployee revealed that Redknapp is very unlikely to become West Ham manager again.

He said, via Hammers News:

In terms of options, Harry Redknapp is very keen on the job. I think similar to what the board think, and that is that it’s too much of a gamble. Her’s too old now, he’s 72. The chairman are very very tight with their money, and Redknapp is the opposite, he goes gung-ho with the money. Redknapp would want control over transfers and Sullivan wouldn’t want to give him that much freedom with them.

Read West Ham’s verdict

Redknapp has been out of a job since leaving Birmingham, so it would be a big risk to appoint him again.

He’s not getting younger and seems to have more passion for doing television ads than being a football manager now.

West Ham should really look elsewhere for their next boss.
