Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has urged David Nugent to concentrate on his football following the striker's loan move to Burnley from Portsmouth.Redknapp brought Nugent to Fratton Park two years ago but the once-capped England international struggled on the south coast and has moved to Turf Moor for six months with the view to a permanent transfer.The 24-year-old, who netted twice last week on the Burnley debut, only scored six goals for Pompey, with Redknapp suggesting he struggled to focus on his game. Nugent has a chance to haunt his former boss as Burnley visit White Hart Lane tomorrow.

I can see why (Portsmouth manager) Paul Hart loaned him out," Redknapp said. "Maybe he'll get a new lease of life, get himself going again and dedicate himself to playing football.If he does that he can score goals. He's proved that before. Now he has an opportunity to just get on with his football and show people what he can do. That's what it's about.Campbell is in limbo at present after walking out on Notts County, just one game into his League Two career.

Redknapp is a huge admirer of Campbell and reports claimed he would look to swoop for the former England international in a bid to ease his defensive worries.Campbell will be free to join a new club when the transfer window opens in January, but Redknapp has ruled out a return to White Hart Lane.Some people are already claiming I am now going to sign Sol. Well, let's nail that one straight away - it ain't going to happen," Redknapp wrote in his column in The Sun.
