Transfer Gossip: Portsmouth reportedly monitoring Bristol City striker and Oxford loanee

According to website Bristol Live, the Bristol City forward is on the Blues' radar this summer.

Taylor's out of contract at Ashton Gate at the end of the season and is set to become a free agent.

The ex-Forest Green man has been on loan at League One rivals Oxford United this campaign and is preparing to face Pompey in the play-offs next week.

The 30-year-old has enjoyed a good spell at the Kassam Stadium, netting 17 goals in 35 appearances.

Two of his efforts have been against Kenny Jackett's men, in the 2-2 Leasing.com Trophy draw in October and the 1-1 stalemate in the league at Fratton Park the following month.

Oxford are also supposedly interested in making Taylor's switch permanent.

Meanwhile, Pompey are keen on Dunfermline ace Kevin Nisbet. The Scot plundered 23 goals in 32 outings for the Scottish Championship side this season.
