Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp fears losing out on Tottenham defender Younes Kaboul to Sunderland.
"I still want to bring in Kaboul but he has spoken with Sunderland," Redknapp told The News. "I know Aston Villa also want him.
"I went to see him last year before he joined Spurs, and drank Moroccan tea with his parents.
"But Roy Keane has met him now too. I'd say we are third now behind the other two teams."
