Robbie Keane is poised for his third deadline-day move in 18 months, with Tottenham ready to send him to Aston Villa or Newcastle United to help Harry Redknapp bring in a new signing.[LNB]Keane was offered as a makeweight in a £14million bid made on Saturday to Villa for long-time Redknapp target Ashley Young.[LNB]But the Republic of Ireland captain may prefer to move instead to St James' Park, where he is guaranteed regular football every week.[LNB] Day off: Robbie Keane remained on the bench for Tottenham's clash with Wigan[LNB]Keane's career has been littered with moves, including switches on deadline day in the last two January transfer windows.
