Harry Redknapp admits he will have to offload a number of players before he can spend this summer.

The Tottenham boss is working with one of the Premier League's biggest squads, meaning his hands are tied in the transfer market.
He has been informed by the club's board that any moves for further fresh faces will need to be funded by sales.
With Spurs looking to break back into the top four in 2011/12 and secure UEFA Champions League football once more, it is expected that they will look to bring in new recruits.
There will, however, be plenty of movement towards the White Hart Lane exits before any arrivals are welcomed on board.

Redknapp said: "There is nothing happening in the transfer market.
"I need to sell four or five players to bring in funds.
"The chairman has made it clear we need to move a few players before we can start doing any business.
"I keep seeing us linked with this player and that, but unless we reduce our squad numbers we will stay quiet in the market."

Arsene Wenger claims Arsenal are doing all they can to keep Gael Clichy at Emirates Stadium.

The French full-back has been linked with a number of clubs this summer, with it reported that he is keen to take on a new challenge.
Serie A giants Roma are believed to be heading the queue for his signature, with Liverpool also in the hunt.
Wenger has commented on the issue before, making it clear that the Gunners would be reluctant to do business with a Premier League rival.
He has, however, now revealed that Arsenal are in talks with the defender regarding his future.
They hope the 25-year-old can be persuaded to stay on and pen an extension to his current contract, which is due to expire next year.
"We have started talks with Gael and want him to stay," said Wenger.
