The Story in 60 Seconds

Portsmouth sporting director Rich Hughes has revealed that winger Harvey Blair is unlikely to play for the club again after asking to leave during the summer transfer window. Following failed moves away from Fratton Park, the 22-year-old was left out of Pompey's 25-man Football League squad, despite the club submitting only 22 names.

Portsmouth plan to offload Blair during the January transfer window when he enters the final six months of his contract. The former Liverpool player, who previously drew interest from Widzew Lodz, has scored once in 29 appearances since joining the club in August 2024.
