It’s expected to be busy at Fratton Park in the remaining hours of the window, with John Mousinho keen to strengthen before the 11pm closure.

A new centre-back and a new pacey winger is top of the head coach’s wish list as he readies his squad for a vital second half of the season.

Key Events

  • Pompey bring in defender Di’Shon Bernard on loan.
  • Paddy Lane signs for an undisclosed fee from Fleetwood.
  • That’s two signings on deadline day - the January transfer window is now closed.

It’s around this time every year me and Harry Redknapp roll out that infamous Benjani story. Except my version uses the great man’s words - and is completely different to Harry’s!

Am told that is likely to be it for this transfer window for Pompey - AS IT STANDS.

But there’s always that tantalising possibility of late drama. So cannot definitely rule it out.

Deadline 11pm.

Paddy Lane has his say on is Pompey transfer.

Still looking like that’s your lot for Pompey, but can never say never.

Blimey, just seen that Gassan Adhadme has just rejoined Burton on loan from Ipswich.

He only left the Pirelli Stadium for the Tractor Boys in the previous transfer window!

And that’s it. The January transfer window has closed.

Pompey have brought in Ryley Towler, Matt Macey (loan), Di’Shon Bernard (loan) and Paddy Lane.
