HARRY Redknapp has moved to justify allowing Robbie Keane to exit Spurs, as flop Roman Pavlyuchenko stays.

"It was something he wanted to do because Celtic were his team as a boy.

"I felt we had enough strikers to let Robbie Keane go to Celtic. It was a loan move that he obviously fancied and I didn't want to stand in his way" Redknapo explained.

"have got Eidur in now and hopefully Roman Pavlyuchenko should be fit for the weekend so we are ok in that area.
