Moyes: Among the favourites to succeed Redknapp

The Toffees manager has been linked with a summer switch to White Hart Lane following Spurs' shock decision to part company with Harry Redknapp in the early hours of Thursday morning.

Moyes celebrated 10 years with the Toffees in March of this year and is highly regarded for his achievements on Merseyside on a relatively limited budget.

Former Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas remains the firm favourite to over in north London with the bookmakers, with Moyes and Wigan manager Roberto Martinez also in the frame.

But the Scot has made it clear that that no-one from Tottenham had made any approach to him in either a formal or informal capacity.

Moyes said: "There has been no contact. If there had been contact, the first person I would have told would be the chairman."

"I hope I can fulfil all my ambitions at Everton, but you never know in this game."
