Colby Bishop is currently the only contracted front man beyond the end of the season, with Joe Pigott and Dane Scarlett to return to Ipswich and Spurs respectively when their deals come to a close.
Last summer saw Danny Cowley splash the cash for the 26-year-old from Accrington and the forward has repaid the Blues by netting 19 goals to date.
With the play-offs an unrealistic target for Pompey, John Mousinho will have one eye on the upcoming window and could be looking to splash the cash to improve his side.
And the head coach has previously stated he will be eyeing reinforcement into his attacking department.
We’ve chosen 12 strikers from the Championship to League Two who could tick the box for the Blues in the summer.
5. Aaron Collins - Bristol Rovers
The versatile forward can play anywhere across the front three and was linked with Pompey last summer. This term he’s been the Pirates’ most productive player in front of goal - netting 15 goals in 35 appearances for Joey Barton’s side. Collins is under contract at the Memorial Stadium until 2025.

6. Macauley Bonne - Charlton
The powerful front man needs no introduction to League One football, having impressed at Ipswich and Charlton before a move to Championship side QPR. His time at Loftus Road was far from a success, netting just three times in 42 second-tier outings. The 27-year-old returned to the Addicks until the end of the season and would be a steal on a free transfer. Photo: Ashley Allen
7. Kyle Joseph - Swansea (on loan at Oxford United)
Joseph was another name linked with Pompey last summer as Cowley looked to strengthen his attack. The 20-year-old is currently on loan with Oxford United but has impressed in a difficult season for the U’s. He averages more than two shots on target per game and scored seven goals in 27 league outings this term. Photo: Bryn Lennon
8. Josh Coburn - Middlesborough (on loan at Bristol Rovers)
The highly-talented youngster has impressed during his loan spell at Bristol Rovers, where he’s starred alongside Collins in attack. The 20-year-old has averaged 0.44 goals per game in all competitions giving him a total of 15 strikes. He penned fresh terms at the Riverside Stadium in January 2022, which will see him stay with Boro until 2025. Photo: Stu Forster
