Redknapp vows to help Portsmouth

Portsmouth built up huge deficits under Harry Redknapp as they created a large wage bill. One of the players bought, Nwankwo Kanu, has lodged a claim for £3 million from the club.

Redknapp told ESPN: “I will be ringing Kanu today to see if there is anything I can do. I signed him for Portsmouth on a one-year contract and Tony Adams told me: ‘You must be mad, he is finished.’ Six years later, he is still there.”
