Spurs rule out Raul move

26 July 2010 16:01
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has ruled out adding former Real Madrid captain Raul to his strikeforce, but admits that he could be interested in a move for Sevilla hitman Luis Fabiano. Raul marked his last day of a 16-year stay at the Santiago Bernabeu by claiming that he could now be set for a move to the Barclays Premier League. The 33-year-old is also considering a move to Schalke but Newcastle, Liverpool, Manchester United and Spurs have all been linked with a move for the striker. Spurs boss Redknapp insists a move for the former Spain striker, who scored 323 goals for Los Blancos, would be beyond Spurs financially, but admits he is interested in signing Fabiano. Redknapp told Sky Sports News: "I like Fabiano. I've got other targets, but I'd be a liar if I said I didn't like him, he's a top player. Raul was a great player at Real Madrid, but I wouldn't think he would be a player we would bring to Tottenham. Financially, I don't think it would be possible to do a deal like that."
