'Will be worth a fortune. Scary situation': Clear Portsmouth verdict over future of huge favourite
Gustavo Caballero has netted one goal in 12 appearances for Pompey during his loan stint from Santos.
The Fratton faithful have made it clear on social media Pompey should sign Gustavo Caballero this summer.
John Mousinho has spoken of his desire to secure the winger’s services on a permanent basis after impressing following his deadline-day arrival in February.
Caballero has impressed at Fratton Park, netting one goal in 12 outings to date, but has missed the Blues’ previous four matches due to a groin issue.
Under the current agreements of his loan deal, Pompey do possess an exclusive transfer option, believed to be worth around the £2.5m region, to make his stay longer term.
And that is something supporters would like to see the Blues’ football operations do this summer as they begin preparations for next term.
Indeed, the Fratton faithful have taken to social media to discuss Caballero’s future and whether Mousinho’s men should activate that clause.
Here’s the best of the reaction from Facebook.
Clear Pompey verdict over summer move for Gustavo Caballero
Ash Gough: Instantly, if he wishes to move to England.
Paul Streeter: Yes, he is young and will get better in time has shown us what a good player he is worth £1.5 - 2 million. His price will go up as he progress in the Championship.
Carla Lala Hodgson: He needs more time to adjust to this league, I think he could be a good investment. Him and Murphy on the wings with Segs in the middle sounds like a scary situation for opposition defenders.
Rhys Pfc Watson: Yes, he was great at Millwall and he’s got pace so definitely yes from me.
Ross Dixon: I think he is worth a go. Looks good on the right and with Murphy back on the left with the Bish in the middle potentially potent attack next season.
Rick Robson: Yes for sure, he can only get better and he still young.
Jamie Dunsmore: The boy brings pace… a bit raw but that’s why we have coaches!
Paul Sharpe: Worth a chance, needs to be developed into the English game, JM would surely develop him.
