Harry Redknapp transfer stories! Hilarious stories from a man who loved Deadline Day!

Harry Redknapp has become notorious for some of his transfers and rolling-up on Deadline Day out the car window. He recalls some that worked, and plenty that never, on Premier League Tonight.

[@abhishekhbhati6999]

Harry is so old school. They should have him, Sir Alex and big Sam sit together and share transfer stories.

[@colemiller1591]

That would be legendary, wouldn't understand a thing they said though.

[@Budda1992]

Fat Sam is over-rated though

[@stevenclark6209]

Budda1992 he is but he has signed so many players he would have tons of story's..

[@michaelugghhh1729]

And Wenger. Bet they’ve loads of stories

[@Creees]

that would be beyond epic, wha a fantastic idea

[@johnjuanmoon5975]

I can tell Frank enjoys being on the program with Uncle Harry lol. He's probably heard most of these over Christmas dinner and the like over the years lol.

[@Gblonkers]

John Juan Moon imagine him when he’s pissed. Constant transfer stories

[@chineduleslie4315]

Yeh I noticed him pushing Harry for the Etoo story

[@lawrenceoleary6906]

Frank Lampard's dad saying he didn't rate Eto'o is hilarious

[@Talis7212]

I ain't no fackin wheeler dealer Alright Benji get on the plane

[@seanscanlon9067]

Harry is not the brightest really and the interviewer was clearly talking about being a wheeler-dealer in the football transfer market, but Harry seemed to take it as if he was suggesting that he paid no income, no VAT and was buying David Bowie LPs and Trevor Francis tracksuits, from a mush in Shepherds Bush.

[@willhendo5090]

how does he get annoyed when an interviewer calls him a wheeler dealer when he goes on like this all the time haha

[@vantheman1234]

Will good point

[@flucazade]

because he is a football manager, not Delboy!

[@eddy4688]

He helped create the wheeler dealer image himself though, the talked too much especially out of his car window, he's got the look & accent of a Del Boy type as well.

[@jameskid81]

only coz hes got a London accent, if it was Sir Alex in Scottish it would sound different

[@AcidRayne100]

I think Harry thought it implied he was a dodgy bloke taking bungs.

[@The_Bit_Player]

The Benjani story shows Clubs aren't loyal to their players. So why should players be loyal to the Clubs?

[@Fumblingthroughlifeonline]

Exactly players get called mercenaries but they could end up being pushed out their clubs.

[@whateverhappenshappens5023]

mab why not?? He didn't want to leave but Harry wanted cash

[@alexf8314]

whatever happens happens -- Because they're playing and being paid millions to do what they love doing anyway... yet because it's not for the team this one wants to play for... oh what a travesty!

[@whateverhappenshappens5023]

@@alexf8314 it certainly is a travesty. Thanks for agreeing

Feel sorry for Benjani

[@MurrayHerts]

Probably best for him in the long run, I'm sure his wages were increased by a fair amount, but yeah bit sad on a personal level if he genuinely enjoyed the club and living in the area, he did get to go back for one final season at least.

[@solidcake3401]

hardly played an most of his city stint was spent on a Mediterranean beach while getting 50k a week.. Poor poor man :(

[@colemiller1591]

His career died after that though. Hardly had consistent game time afterwords.

he's depression was quickly over once he took a look at his bank account

Harry should of been England manager. He's got so much character, he reminds me of a 2nd hand car dealer 🤣. Top top man

[@burlhorse61]

too many backhanders

[@emmanymatthew2539]

Benjani was phenomenal at Portsmouth, loved by fans n love the club...

[@letlotlomache1448]

Absolutely love Harry! In these contemporary times... a breath of fresh air. Old school.

[@thejudge-kv2jk]

Sad to hear about Benjani being forced out of Pompey. Thanks Harry...

The Ali Dia story is still to this day my favourite transfer story of all time 😂😂😂

[@jameswalsh9585]

Ali dia story by Harry redknapp

[@Robertolg75]

Harry the old school gaffer, well traveled and versed, has a class about him lost in the modern day. Love hearing him mention the names of clubs that were once the cream of the football crop before the sport got sold to, and monopolized by, the foreign billionaire boys club.

[@rohithraman6488]

Even if the sport didn't get sold to them it all comes round in swings and roundabouts

[@RoYaLLeGiiTHD]

Maybe not the best manager ever, but certainly the most honest

[@VillaBoys123]

SirCalz Except for when he declares his taxes.

[@dylanmoore6283]

SirCalz and that knee injury

[@Harz77]

SirCalz I’m a Chelsea fan but even I can admit he built a quality team at Tottenham, I used to enjoy watching them.

[@SuperMillwall]

SirCalz Well he was the man that changed around Tottenham's fortunes, Spurs were a bottom half team before he arrived and he turned them into a Top 4 team and now look at them, they've gone from strength to strength. Not to mention he won the FA Cup with Pompey, he's a decent manager.

[@si4632]

hahahaha honest what about the rosey account

[@steve13191]

if harry were born in this generation he would be the biggest fan of football manager. love to hear the guy talk about transfer, absolute gold

[@jbsmith8848]

What a way to treat a young man in a foriegn country

[@mirage5566]

Well, he did admit that they didn't take care of them the same way as they do now. Wasn't necessarily a Harry Redknapp issue, pretty common issue throughout the league really.
