Transfer deadline latest: Portsmouth boss details picture over further loan business after eye-catching Premier League capture

Pompey are keeping their eyes open for any late transfer window loan options.

But Blues boss John Mousinho isn’t planning to bolster their temporary contingent before tonight’s 11pm deadline.

With Owen Moxon’s incoming sealed, sporting director Rich Hughes has overseen five signings so far this month amid a period of recruitment received well by the Fratton faithful.

Matt Macey bolsters the goalkeeping department with Tom McIntyre strengthening the middle of defence and Callum Lang an eye-catching attacking addition.

Myles Peart-Harris has been the only loan recruit, however, joining from Brentford until the end of the season.

Under EFL rules, five players temporary additions can be named in a side’s matchday squad.

Peart-Harris, Abu Kamara, Tino Anjorin and Alex Robertson are the current loanees the club are committed to this season - meaning, in theory, there’s a space for another loan player.

Pompey are across the potential for any late business at a higher level to create openings, but Mousinho doesn’t envisage further loan activity at this stage.

They are, however, looking at bringing in a young addition on a permanent basis.

Mousinho said: ‘We could get more if we wanted. It’s five in the matchday squad and seven or eight in the house.

‘Considering Alex won’t be in a matchday squad this season and Tino probably won’t for another two or three weeks we have flexibility.

‘At the moment, though, we’re not looking to bring anyone in on loan.

'If something pops up we have that flexibility then great - but at the moment, no.

‘We’ll keep our eyes peeled and if something happens at a higher level then there’s always that knockdown effect. We’ll always keep an eye on that.

‘We’re happy with our lot and think it represents a really good window. The players we’ve brought in we feel fit in to the future of the football club and also impact us now.’
