Joe Jordan joins Harry Redknapp's revolution at Tottenham

Joe Jordan was reunited with Harry Redknapp today as he joined the Tottenham coaching team.

The former Scotland international worked with Redknapp in two separate spells at Fratton Park before the manager quit to take over at Spurs two weeks ago.

Jordan is Redknapp's fourth addition to the backroom staff following Kevin Bond and, in parttime roles, Tim Sherwood and Les Ferdinand.

Clive Allen has remained on the staff since the departure of head coach Juande Ramos and is likely to continue to take charge of the reserves.

Jordan had originally stayed at Portsmouth to assist new manager Tony Adams, who has since sought to bring his own backroom staff to the club, with Martin Keown rejecting the chance to work alongside his former Arsenal team-mate so he can concentrate on his media work.

"It was a very tempting offer and one I had to think hard about," said Keown, who admits he could reconsider his decision at the end of the season. "But I just don't feel it's the right time for me to go back into the game. It was very flattering to be asked and I have no doubt that Tony will be a big success.

"What the offer has done is rekindle my passion to get back into the game but I have only recently retired and am happy focusing on my role as an Evening Standard and BBC pundit."
