Tottenham boss Redknapp not given up on Dos Santos

Harry Redknapp believes Giovani Dos Santos still has a future at Tottenham. The Mexico international has struggled to settle in England after signing from Barcelona.

But after a promising World Cup, the Spurs boss insists Dos Santos is still in his plans.

"If he could pass a nightclub as well as he can pass a ball he would be alright." Redknapp said on Talksport.

"His Mum and Dad came over to see me last year and he apologised because they realised he wasn't dedicated.

"He's got bags of ability and fantastic skill. Suddenly, he was late on Monday mornings - upset stomach - he'd probably been in Barcelona partying somewhere.

"He's had a great World Cup. If he knuckles down this year he could be a top player.

"He's a nice kid and I hope he keeps his head down and gets on with the job."
