Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp says former Town loanee Giovani Dos Santos has a “part to play” at White Hart Lane. Rumours of Dos Santos’s return to Portman Road have continued throughout the summer, despite manager Roy Keane describing the chances of the move taking place as “very, very, very slim”.

Redknapp says Dos Santos impressed him in a Carling Cup tie last week and could now come more into his plans: "He played the other night and did very well. He looked lively at Doncaster, so hopefully he can continue in that form.

"He's had a good spell with the Mexican national team, he was the player of the tournament recently [at the CONCACAF Gold Cup], so he looks like he's certainly got something to offer and he's got a part to play here.

"If he continues in that form, if he dedicates himself to being a top player, then there's no reason why he can't do that. He's got all the ability, but it's up to him now."

Dos Santos spent the final two months of last season on loan at Portman Road, scoring four times in six starts and two sub appearances.

WadzillaBhoy added 17:35 - Sep 3 Yeah but the thing that puzzles me is Tottenhams official website, check out http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/players/first_team/giovanidossantos.html and scroll down you will see it clearly states he is playing with Ipswich this season. Now this could be a mistake but with Spurs signing Kranjcar we can only hope that Gio is deemed surplus to requirements and that we get him on a season long loan! What a squad we'd have then!
