Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp confirmed he won’t be bringing veteran defender Sol Campbell back to White Hart Lane.
Campbell has dominated the backpage headlines over the past couple of days following his departure from League Two outfit Notts County after just one game with the club.
"Some people are already claiming I am now going to sign Sol. Well, let's nail that one straight away - it ain't going to happen," Redknapp wrote in his column for The Sun.
"I said during the summer that, if I was the boss of any other Premier League club, I'd sign Sol like a shot.
"That statement still applies today. But there is no way in the world Sol is ever going to play for Spurs again.
"There is simply too much bad feeling towards him from the fans at White Hart Lane.
"It would be too much hassle for him, for me and the club."
He added: "Anyway, I couldn't sign him even if I wanted to because of the regulations.
"Sol is now a free agent but Premier League clubs can't sign any players unless they were out of contract in the transfer window. So he can't sign for a top-flight club until January at the earliest."
