Nevertheless, Jackett’s troops will still visit Woking to prepare for the 2019-20 campaign.

The Cardinals also don’t know which tier of non-league they’ll be plying their trade in next term.

They finished second in National League South and meet either Bath City or Wealdstone in the play-off semi-finals on Sunday.

Pompey last played Woking in a pre-season friendly in 2015.
