The 30-year-old is a free agent following his release from Wigan at the season’s end.

Certainly the former Everton man will not be returning to Fratton Park, after a frustrating spell on the south coast.

The 30-year-old featured just 11 times in a disappointing Pompey loan spell during the second half of the season.

That period consisted of just two first-team starts – and no goals.

Vaughan’s final appearance was as an impressive second-half substitute against Sunderland in the play-off semi-final second leg at Fratton Park last month.
