Despite receiving a number of offers from across the globe, Eto'o would prefer to remain in London and has sounded out Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. The Frenchman, however, is yet to show his hand.
Redknapp has already strengthened his side with the captures of Rio Ferdinand and Steven Caulker but clearly feels that the Londoners need more firepower if they are to preserve their Premier League status.
