Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp has admitted he would be interested in signing Liverpool striker Peter Crouch.
Redknapp is a big fan of Crouch having worked with the England striker during his time in charge of Portsmouth and Southampton.
Crouch's long-term future at Liverpool looks uncertain with reports suggesting Rafa Benitez could be willing to cash in on the forward.
And should Crouch become available, Redknapp has indicated he would be at the front of the queue to sign the 26-year-old.
"You will always be interested in someone like him," Redknapp told The Mirror.
"He is a great player and can be unplayable at times. He is a great lad and great to work with.
"He was fantastic in that year he had at Portsmouth. The club owe him a massive debt for what he did.
"We bought him for £1million and sold him for £5million. He scored 19 goals and without those goals they would probably have gone down.
"He kept the club going and for me he has been one of the main players for the last six or seven years."
