Michael Olise reacts as Portsmouth star Christian Saydee posts new images
Portsmouth star Christian Saydee faces an uncertain future on the South Coast, and may end up leaving this summer.
Pompey could end up upgrading several areas of their squad in the summer transfer window, having secured their survival in the Championship.
John Mousinho could target a new attacker, and there have already been links with a few different targets.
A new addition could mean that Saydee exits the club, but until then, he is enjoying his summer break now the season has ended.

Saydee has now been pictured with a superstar in Michael Olise following the conclusion of the season, with his future at Fratton Park still uncertain.
Olise has just won the Bundesliga in his first season as a Bayern Munich player, and was one of the best wingers in European football this year.
The Frenchman is very familiar with the Championship, having played for Reading before moving to Crystal Palace.

It was at Palace that he became a huge name, with his incredible performances on both wings eventually earning him a move to Bayern last summer.
Saydee and Olise may know each other from academy football, and are clearly good friends despite playing in different countries.
With the pair pictured together on Saydee’s Instagram, Olise has also ‘liked’ the Portsmouth star’s post.
Saydee could leave Portsmouth
Saydee was hardly prolific this season, scoring 3 goals in 29 Championship appearances, but these came in just 10 starts.
Colby Bishop was the key man upfront, and if Portsmouth sign any more attackers, Saydee will fall further down the pecking order.
This could see him leave Portsmouth this summer, after 73 appearances and seven goals across two seasons, and a return to League One may be what he needs.
Saydee has played in a variety of attacking positions both in midfield as well as a striker, and was a strong performer in the third division.
Portsmouth have been linked with Abdoulie Manneh among others, and could recruit in attack which could lead to Saydee’s departure.
