Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has revelaed he was tempted by an offer to manage Al-Ahli last summer.
Redknapp said he was seriously considering a move to Dubai for a better lifestyle, but ultimately could not desert Spurs after leading them into the Champions League for the first ever time.
United Arab Emirates side Al-Ahli appointed former Leeds United and Aston Villa boss David O'Leary as their manager.
Redknapp told the Tottenham's official website: ''There was an offer and I was intrigued. I love coming here [to Dubai]. It's a great way of life; it's safe, no trouble, you can do things, you can go out in the open. I was interested.''

Bit of a surprise story. I've looked on the OS and I can't see what they're referring to. Thoughts?
