Fans favourite due for contract talks

Fans favourite Linvoy Primus may yet have a Pompey lifeline after chief exec Peter Storrie revealed that talks aimed to keep the defender at the club are set to take place before the summer.

The long serving defender who joined Pompey in 2000 on a free transfer from Reading is out of contract in the summer and has an injury wrecked season not playing at all after having knee surgery

Talking to The News Storrie said: 'We will be looking at the players who are out of contract at some point over the next few weeks.

'We will certainly look after Linvoy – he has been a great servant to the club and we will be sitting down with him as and when the time is right.

'Linvoy is certainly one who deserves to remain with the club.

'We haven't met with anybody regarding new contracts yet, but my personal opinion is he is one player we will definitely support as a club.'

While Primus wont take any part in the rest of the season he has been given the all clear from famous knee surgeon Dr Steadman in January and has been gradually working towards his recovery, targetting a return in pre-season.

With a possible European campaign to prepare for next season having a reliable defender like Linvoy around certainly makes sense, and hopefully the club will decide to retain him.
