Star Portsmouth Hears Over Sheffield United Relocation

Pompey have had a difficult start to life in the Championship under young manager John Mousinho, sitting bottom of the table.

With the transfer window closing, they started fishing in the free agent market to improve their squad.

Former Manchester City youth player Jamal Baptiste is on trial in the Fratton Park squad, but the 20-year-old is set to join Sheffield United.

The Blades also had a close look at the centre-back and were impressed with what he showed them in the trial.

Baptiste’s move to Bramall Lane is currently in the process of being resolved.

Many sides in the Championship have eyed the highly-rated defender despite his move from Manchester City in the summer.

It is unclear whether Chris Wilder is viewed as a formidable starting centre-back or more of a project player.
