 REDKNAPP: CASH WAS CLEARLY SECRET PAYMENTPORTSMOUTH, POOLE
A tax-free payment collected by Harry Redknapp from his boss was clearly a secret bonus, a court heard today.
Jurors were told it was ‘as plain as a pikestaff’ that the money was work related and the Spurs boss had kept it from the taxman.
Redknapp, 64, is said to have received tax-free payments totaling £189,500 paid into a specially set up Monaco bank account while manager of Portsmouth FC.
Pompey’s former chairman Milan Mandaric, 73, stands accused alongside Redknapp of setting up the offshore payments in a deliberate attempt to dodge tax.
