Harry Redknapp has angrily hit out tonight at suggestions that he has resigned as Spurs manager.

The Tottenham boss spoke out in the wake of speculation claiming the 65-year-old had quit White Hart Lane with a year remaining on his contract.

Discussions over a new deal have reportedly not progressed since Redknapp was heavily linked with the then vacant England manager’s post, and it is claimed he would not be comfortable heading into the new campaign without a new deal in place.

Reacting to the exit rumours, Redknapp told ESPN: “No, I haven’t resigned, and I have no idea why it is being suggested that I have resigned.

“This is an outrage; an absolute liberty for people to be putting around this kind of rumour on the internet.

“It is not true, there is not a chance I will resign. Why should I? I have a year left on my contract.”
