Harry Redknapp would return to management, but only for 'right offer'

The 68-year-old handed in his resignation at Loftus Road in February, citing knee problems behind the decision to leave the Barclays Premier League strugglers, although he later claimed "people with their own agendas" had a hand in his departure and described the situation at the west London club as "a bit of a soap opera".

Redknapp will return to the dugout on Sunday, May 31 when he leads a star-studded Men United XI against Leyton Orient Legends, as O's youth coach and Prostate Cancer UK ambassador Errol McKellar hosts a charity football match at The Matchroom Stadium.

The well-travelled former West Ham, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Southampton and Tottenham manager, Redknapp feels "fit as a fiddle" again following knee surgery and would relish another crack at a full-time job, but only under certain circumstances.

"It is difficult to know whether you want to go back in again, but if the right offer came along for the right job then I would consider it, because I do love the game and certainly do miss it," Redknapp told Press Association Sport.

"But unless it was the right job I would not bother. It has got to be something which I really wanted to do.

"It would not be a case of the money. I had an offer earlier this week to go and work abroad where the money was incredible, a mind-blowing offer, but at the moment it did not interest me.

"I have my wife here, my grandkids and everything else, so it has got to be something I wanted to do.

Redknapp lost close friend and former West Ham team-mate John Bond to Prostate Cancer and is backing the Men United campaign to help raise awareness of the disease, which is the most common cancer in men with more than 10,000 deaths each year.

He said: "Prostate Cancer is something which can affect any family at any time so it is important that people come out to support this cause.

"We are all scared that if the doctor tells you that you have something wrong, but if you get there early enough it can be cured - you can't let it just go."
