Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is expected to travel to Brazil before the transfer window opens to look at Internacional defensive-midfielder Sandro. [LNB] Redknapp only has Wilson Palacios, Tom Huddlestone and Jermaine Jenas as central midfielders and views the 20-year-old, who made his Brazil debut earlier in the season, as a possibility to provide competition. [LNB] "I'm looking for someone else who can play in midfield here," said Redknapp. "We've been looking at Sandro."[LNB] He continued: "He's just breaking into the Brazilian team from the Under-21s. He can play - he's a modern day midfield player.[LNB] "We've only got three central midfield players. [LNB] "Jamie O'Hara went, Kevin-Prince Boateng went, Didier Zokora went. Suddenly we're very, very short in there. Jermaine Jenas is on four bookings, Palacios on three. [LNB] "I'd like to go and have a look myself as well and, if we do decide to do anything, it'll be up to the chairman to push it on from there." [LNB] Redknapp will use his squad players for the Carling Cup clash against Everton.
