Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has revealed that Robbie Keane will be allowed to leave the club in January, with Aston Villa and new MLS franchise Vancouver Whitecaps thought to be leading the hunt for his signature.

Keane's White Hart Lane future has been in doubt for almost a year, with the Ireland captain having been loaned out to Celtic for the second half of last season.
The striker has started only twice this term for Spurs, with Peter Crouch, Roman Pavyluchenko and the fit-again Jermain Defoe all ahead of him in the pecking order.
It has been more than a month since Keane's last involvement with the first team and a permanent move away from the club at which he has starred in the Premier League since 2002, appears certain.
""I think he'd like to move - he wants to play, you know?"" Redknapp said. ""He's not used to not playing. All his career, he's played and been a big player and he wants to play. He could sit here and take his wages, but that's not him.
""He wants to play football. He trains hard, works hard every day, he's shown a great attitude. And probably the hardest decision I had to make was last week: I couldn't get him on the bench.”
