Both Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa are interested in offering short term deals to out of contract midfielder Owen Hargreaves as the end of the transfer window approaches.
Spurs boss Harry Redknapp wishes to bolster his midfield by the end of this summer window but has been unable to sign any one so far. The deal for Lassana Diarra seems to have fallen through because of the former’s wage demands while Spurs are still haggling with West Ham on a transfer fee for Scott Parker.
Hargreaves has also been approached by West Bromwich Albion and is expected to make a decision soon. The former Bayern Munich star has declared himself fit and capable of playing 40 games a season after seeing his time at Man Utd wrecked by injury problems.
