Redknapp wants to sign Craig Bellamy after failing to secure Joe Cole. Redknapp has been after Bellamy for some time, and with City signing Spain star David Silva from Valencia this summer Tottenham are looking to get the Welshman for as little as £3 million, according to The Mirror.
With Spurs participating in the Champions League this season Redknapp believes that Bellamy would be an ideal addition to his squad.
Manchester City striker Craig Bellamy has indicated he would consider a shock move to Championship side Cardiff.
Bellamy said he would refuse to sit on the bench collecting his wages, but has ruled out a switch overseas or to another Premier League side.
And as surprise reports suggested Cardiff - who missed out on a top flight spot after suffering a play-off final defeat to Blackpool - could be the Welshman's next destination, Bellamy hinted at a transfer to his hometown club.
"I have never once - and I never would once - sit back and pick up my money," Bellamy said in the Mirror.
Roberto Mancini has once again been forced to insist there is no rift between him and striker Craig Bellamy.
The Wales captain is reported to have a stormy relationship with boss Mancini but the Italian is adamant there are no ongoing problems with Bellamy.
"I continue to read that I have a problem with Craig Bellamy," he said.
"This is false. I do not have any problems with him. If I did he wouldn't play. I respect him. He works very well and always gives 100%."
CRAIG Bellamy is at war with the BBC after being ridiculed on Match Of The Day. And the £14million Manchester City striker is ready to follow Sir Alex Ferguson by refusing to speak to the network after games.
Fergie fell out with the BBC after a documentary accused his footie agent son Jason of profiting from his dad’s position.
RAFAEL da Silva should look upon his derby encounter with Craig Bellamy as a vital part of his education. Former United full-back Arthur Albiston is confident the 19-year-old Brazilian will store the experience away and learn from it.
Rafael was downcast after referee Mike Dean penalised him in the key 40th minute tussle that gave City the leg up back into Tuesday's Carling Cup semi final at Eastlands. The teenager and the Blues' wily 30-year-old front-man went shoulder-to-shoulder in the race that led to City's penalty.
Arsene Wenger has refused to rule out an audacious move next month for Manchester City striker Craig Bellamy. On the day that one of his long-term targets, Bordeaux's Marouane Chamakh, said he would not be moving to the Emirates, the Arsenal manager admitted he would like to bring in Bellamy but fears he will not succeed.
Liverpool legend John Aldridge has slammed the transfer policy of manager Rafa Benitez. Aldridge believes Benitez must find a way to bring in a new striker to provide support for Fernando Torres on whom the club have been heavily reliant.
Benitez has already freed up striker Dirk Kuyt to move into a more central position from the right by snapping up Atletico Madrid winger Maxi Rodriguez.
Mancini doesn't have a full squad to choose from but must go on the attack from the start in an attempt to put more pressure on United's creaking defence. Craig Bellamy is in the form of his life along with Carlos Tevez, who will be desperate to impress against his former club. Both should start, while Stephen Ireland can also offer extra threat going forward.
Unlike Ferguson's, Mancini's options are favourable and he must make the most of home advantage, provided he can resolve his defensive issues caused by injuries and international commitments.
