It’s expected to be a busy summer at Fratton Park as Pompey look to progress in the Championship next season.
There’s plenty of uncertainty in the air on the south coast, with the Blues braced for interest in a number of key personnel including Terry Devlin and Adrian Segecic after stellar campaigns.
Meanwhile, the future of John Mousinho remains uncertain, with his name still tipped with the Bristol City vacancy, while a fellow unnamed Championship club also has the Blues boss in their sights.
Four members of the squad have already departed since the season’s conclusion, including Andre Dozzell, along with Pompey’s six loan players.
But who’s still here at Fratton Park and what’s needed for next term?
We’ve taken a look at what the Blues’ strongest XI and bench looks like at present to work out what areas need strengthening and what is required in this summer’s transfer window
