Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has made a move for former Leeds United midfielder Olivier Dacourt, the player's agent has confirmed.

Bruno Satin, the player's representative, says a return to the Premier League is an option, with Newcastle also said to have inquired about him.

 

Redknapp watched Inter's game against Genoa on Tuesday night and reports have claimed he flew to Italy to sign striker Adriano.

 

But Dacourt is no longer needed by Inter boss Jose Mourinho and Spurs, as well as the Magpies, have emerged as possible destinations for the Frenchman.

 

Dacourt, 34, has only appeared once in the Italian league this season.

 

Satin told Setanta.com: "Tottenham have enquired about Olivier and it would be a nice option.

 

"Newcastle have also taken information about him."

 

The former Leeds and Everton player told L'Equipe: "I have set a deadline regarding my future. I have plenty of contacts everywhere, in Italy, England, Spain, but I prefer to wait for the moment.

 

"My kids go to school in Milan; as a consequence I'm not going to just do whatever. I have plenty of options, too many in fact, and you have pros and cons at every club."

Would love to see Bullard here. Him & Barton or Guthrie in midfield would be industrious.

 

set piece taker too and since geremi was our number one on that front (for whatever reason) he would certainly be useful there too

i always thought he was canny...but it's been a fair few years since i seen him play in england plus he's not really the attacking midfielder we're crying out for.

 

bullard would be a great buy. it'll be our loss if he goes to wigan
