Richard Keys pokes 'fun' at Harry Redknapp links amid bankruptcy admission
Richard Keys says it would be 'fun' to see Harry Redknapp appointed Leeds United manager because he would 'bankrupt them and take them down'.
Redknapp is reportedly open to coming out of management to help keep Leeds afloat in the Premier League. The 75-year-old announced his retirement in 2017 following a 34-year managerial career, which saw him oversee 1,395 games.

Leeds have been rebuffed by Carlos Corberan, Arne Slot, Andoni Iraola, and now Philippe Clement, as their search for Jesse Marsch's replacement rumbles on.
Former Sky Sports presenter Keys couldn't resist at poking fun at Leeds once the reports emerged, and believes the former Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham and Portsmouth manager would be a 'disaster' at Elland Road.
Keys wrote on Twitter: “Yes please. This would be so much fun – unless you’re a Leeds fan. He’d bankrupt them and take them down. It’s not April 1 though is it?”
Philippe Clement reportedly becomes latest target to reject Leeds United job
AS Monaco boss Philippe Clement has reportedly become the latest candidate to reject advances from Leeds United over the possibility of replacing Jesse Marsch.
That is according to Dutch outlet De Telegraph (via FNF), who claim that Clement has his sights set on helping Monaco progress in the UEFA Europa League.
Clement replaced Niko Kovac as Monaco manager in January 2022 and is contracted to Les Monegasques until 2024. Monaco are also in a strong position to secure Champions League qualification for next season with four wins from their last five games propelling them into third-place in Ligue 1.
Harry Redknapp prepared to offer 'wealth of experience' if Leeds United call amid manager search
Harry Redknapp is reportedly willing to come out of retirement if he is offered the managerial vacancy at Leeds United.
According to the Mirror, Redknapp is prepared to offer his wealth of experience on a short-term deal to help keep Leeds in the Premier League.
The 75-year-old has managed 1,395 games during a famous managerial career spanning across four decades. Neil Warnock has also made his return to management by penning a short-term deal at Championship strugglers Huddersfield Town earlier this week.
