Queens Park Rangers midfielder Adel Taarabt keen to prove Harry Redknapp wrong
Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adel-Taarabt-c3610, wants to prove to his former club manager, Harry Redknapp, that he was wrong to sell him.
Taarabt is enthusiastic about his team’s return to top flight football for the 2011/12 season. QPR have qualified for the 2011/12 Premier League season, after winning the 2010/11 npower Championship. However, the Hoops’ face point-deduction for breaching
the transfer policy; the club signed Alejandro Faurlin in controversial circumstances. However, Taarabt is confident that his team did not do anything wrong and the decision will come in their favour.
The Moroccan International moved to the Loftus Road before the start of the 2010/11 season for a measly million pound. Taarabt has taken the Championship by storm, scoring 19 goals and amassing 16 assists in the competition so far. The 21-year-old has been
a dominant figure behind his team’s promotion and has attracted interest from few of the top clubs in Europe.
Taarabt has no regrets on leaving the White Hart Lane and insists that he made the right move to further his career. The former Lens midfielder added that he has no grudge for Redknapp and he still has a good relationship with the former Portsmouth manager.
Talking to the reporters, Taarabt said, “I have nothing against Harry Redknapp. The last time I saw him he joked with me, ‘I sold you for £1m and now you must be worth £8-9m. The chairman will kill me!’ But I hope I can prove to Spurs they made a mistake
to sell me.”
“I don't have any regrets about leaving them. I was in New York when I decided it was time to go so I called Harry and told him, ‘I want to leave.” Added the Moroccan
The midfielder revealed that Tottenham did not guarantee him first team football and they were looking for new players, so he had to make his mind of leaving them. Taarabt added that he did not want to be dragged like former team-mate http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giovani-dos-Santos-c14983,
who could not break into the first team and was loaned out to smaller clubs.
