Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp claims he would recall Paul Scholes if selected to manage England Sources close to Redknapp claim that the 64 year-old does not see the attraction of taking England to Euro 2012 and then making a decision on his future. Neither will this appeal to Spurs whose chairman Daniel Levy will not accept a scenario whereby he does not know the manager's future until the beginning of July. Redknapp, it is believed, would want an increase of the £3.1 million annual salary he earns at Spurs to around £4 million plus bonuses. He understands that if he takes the England job he is, according to one source, "walking away from a lot" at Spurs and would be unlikely to get as good a job again should things not work out. There is also a £5 million compensation clause in his contract and with just under 17 months left on his deal it would mean Spurs would expect to receive around £10 million from the FA for their manager. All of this is being weighed up by the FA who will also have to give Redknapp time to decide his future. Speaking after Spurs" 5-0 victory over Newcastle United, Redknapp stated that he would not write off Frank Lampard's chances of still playing for his country this summer - which were in doubt had Capello remained in his post - but it is his comments on Scholes which will have the biggest impact. "Let's be honest, you would love to have Paul Scholes in the Euro's this year," he said. He'd be in your team, he's that good. Whoever's there (as manager) would love to take him, I'm sure. You'd love him to play. He plays like the Spaniards, like Xavi, or Iniesta - he does not give the ball away. Capello also recognised Scholes's worth and made several efforts to lure him out of international retirement from the moment he was appointed manager - including a late call on the eve of the 2010 World Cup Finals. The midfielder, now 37, quit playing for England in 2004, citing family and club reasons, although he had grown frustrated at being played out of position. However Scholes has been in outstanding form since his shock return to club football last month. "There's good players here, good players in England for sure, good young players," Redknapp said. I felt in South Africa was the best chance we had had since 1966 to win the World Cup. That was my honest opinion. I really could see us winning it, I thought it was a fantastic squad of players. But we were disappointing. Redknapp added that Steven Gerrard would be a "good candidate" to succeed John Terry as captain, after the defender was stripped of the honour by the FA, while also agreeing that Scott Parker could be an alternative. Wayne Rooney has already endorsed Gerrard - while stating that he would also like to be considered. "Listen I'm starting to talk about international football all the time and at the moment my only focus has got to be on Tottenham," Redknapp added. And that's the only thing I'm looking at It's not fair for me to even think about it (England). I know I am going to get these questions. But if anything ever comes, then it's a different game. But at the moment there's nothing happening. The FA's Club England board met on Friday to draw up the criteria for who they want to succeed Capello and although FA chairman David Bernstein is keen to form a proper shortlist of candidates he has also acknowledged Redknapp's credentials. "I'm not concerned by the hype - we are in the real world," Bernstein said. And I can understand the hype. The guy's done amazingly. He's a fine manager and he's English. Sources in Russia, meanwhile, claimed that Capello was due in Moscow on Sunday night to discuss an 8 million euro-a-season deal to become the new coach of the cash-rich club Anzhi Makhachkala. The club had hoped to lure Guus Hiddink as their manager, to replace Yuri Krasnozhan who has only been in the post for a short time, but it is understood that Capello is keen to discuss the move and also has offers from the Middle East.
