Harry Redknapp has had a huge influence on the landscape of London football, earning this reward in recognition of his stellar career as a player, manager and administrator. Celebrating individuals who have been influential throughout their career, the Outstanding Contribution to London Football award recognises those who have contributed substantial time and expertise to help progress and build the profile, reputation, professionalism, and community of football in the capital.
Harry’s positive imprint on London football spans throughout his incredible 60-year career in the game as a player and manager.

Harry’s managerial career also took him to Tottenham Hotspur FC and Queens Park Rangers, with a total of 14 years in charge of the three London clubs. Among many achievements included winning the UEFA Intertoto Cup for West Ham, taking Tottenham to the UEFA Champions League Quarterfinals, and gaining a promotion to the Premier League with Queens Park Rangers.

Thank you to everyone at the charity and I’m looking forward to a fantastic night.”
