Jamie O’Hara has revealed Harry Redknapp used to have bouncers reporting which players went out clubbing on a weekend.
Real Madrid recently built their own nightclub inside the Bernabeu as part of the stadium’s £860million renovation, with entry costing an unbelievable £210,000.
Discussing the new venue, Breakfast co-host Dean Saunders recalled the days his players would bring a going out outfit with them to Saturday games, ready for them to head out in.
But O’Hara says his time at Tottenham was little bit different, as former Spurs boss Redknapp used to keep a firm eye on his players and their weekend antics.
He said: “I remember back in the day, after a game, the Spurs boys would always - me, [Jermaine] Jenas, [Aaron] Lennon, Tom [Huddlestone], Alan Hutton - we’d always end up in Faces.
“We had to stop going Faces in Gants Hill in Essex because Harry Redknapp used to have a guy on the security door!
“So everytime you walked in there, the security on the door would just jot your name down.
“Next minute, you come in Monday morning and Harry goes ‘Good night in Faces, Jamie?’
“He put a scout out, watching you! That’s why we ended up having to leave Faces and we went up London because you could go missing up there.
“But you couldn’t get away with it!”
O’Hara has previously revealed Spurs players had organised a secret Christmas bash behind Redknapp’s back in 2009.
And it’s safe to say the ex-Portsmouth boss was not too impressed.
It remains to be seen if Carlo Ancelotti will allow his Los Blancos stars Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and others to go to their club’s new nightclub, Skybar.
Despite not being La Liga’s top earners, Mbappe and Bellingham will certainly have the cash to be able to afford a space there.
The venue turns from a place to watch matches into a dance floor, which accommodates 200 guests.
If only Spurs had had that back in the day, hey Jamie!
