Harry Redknpp says that he is looking forward to returning to work following his minor heart surgery.

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp says that he is looking forward to returning to the Spurs dugout following a three-week break after heart surgery.

Redknapp will return to the touchline when Tottenham face Aston Villa tonight following his operation to unblock two coronary arteries.

"If I keel over the doctor will be right behind me," the 64-year-old joked. "But I feel really good now.

"I have more energy than I had before and feel better than I did three weeks ago.

"I can handle the stress of a match and am really looking forward to getting back to work."

Spurs are currently fifth in the Premier League with 22 points from 10 games, meaning that a victory over Villa would catapult the North London club ahead of fourth-placed Chelsea.
