Legendary football manager Harry Redknapp has told Sky Sports that he’s “going to have to find a way to sneak out” on this weekend’s Soccer Saturday so he can watch his horse race.
Redknapp is scheduled to be part of the panel for this Saturday’s coverage of the football but he has a horse racing the same afternoon so the 73-year-old is planning to nip out for 5 minutes to watch it.

The former football manager is a busy man these days as he drafted in by Bournemouth to help the club find a new manager.
According to Sky Sports, Redknapp was brought in by his former player Jonathan Woodgate who is the current caretaker at Bournemouth.
The position at Bournemouth became available after the sacking of former manager Jason Tindall following a string of four straight Championship defeats.
