Pompey offer rebuffed for Swedish midfielder at Championship rivals

The Blues have seen a bid rebuffed for the Swedish midfielder, as they look to bring in players capable of carrying them to second-tier safety this term.

Our sister title, the Sheffield Star, are reporting details of an offer for the 27-year-old being knocked back by the stricken Owls, who are currently in administration.

Ingelsson, who has six months remaining on his existing deal with a club option to extend by 12 months, is seen as one of Wednesday’s bankable assets with other outfits also showing interest in the former Hansa Rostock and Udinese man.

The versatile operator can operate in a variety of midfield positions, as well as being able to play out wide. Pompey have signed three players so far in the transfer window, landing wingers Millenic Alli and Keshi Anderson along with midfielder Ebou Adams.
