Redknapp revealed that he had spoken with the out of favour Croat, who has found first team opportunities hard to come by against Rafael van der Vaart and Luka Modric, with Steven Pienaar now swelling Tottenham’s attacking options.
“He’d like to play and I understand that and I’ve told him if someone comes in for him he can go. Unless he can find a good club here then I think he’ll go abroad. I think he’d look to go permanently.”
