Portsmouth news round-up: Mousinho reacts to new deal, Championship gem wanted
Portsmouth fans can take a breather from eagerly awaiting news of confirmed transfers at Fratton Park, at least for a few days.
The summer transfer window closed on Tuesday (10 June) and won’t be open again until next Monday (16 June).
However, that hasn’t put a stop to the speculation about who Portsmouth could sign once the window opens again.
Here, Pompey News rounds up the latest news headlines from the last 24 hours.
Former Pompey target Antony Evans told he’s free to find a new club
Mousinho had shown interest in bringing Antony Evans to Portsmouth last summer.
While it’s not clear how close Pompey were to making a deal, Evans ultimately decided to join Huddersfield Town instead.
However, reports suggest that new Huddersfield boss Lee Grant isn’t a fan of the midfielder and has told him he’s free to leave the club.
That could open the door for the Blues to land Evans on a cut-price deal this summer.
Pompey fans learn about 2025-26 season ticket prices
Some Portsmouth fans will have to pay more for their season tickets next year, after the club confirmed prices for the 2025-26 season.
The price hike amounts to between 70p and £1.87 per game, depending on the ticket holder’s age and the location of their seat.

While adult tickets are more expensive, the most significant price rises for general sale season tickets are seen in the younger age categories.
Portsmouth join race to sign Norwich defender Tomkinson
Several sources suggest that American defender Jonathan Tomkinson is on Portsmouth’s radar.
The 23-year-old has been released by Norwich City after his contract expired. He only made one appearance for the Canaries and was loaned out to Ross County this season.
Stockport County, Reading and Rotherham United are also interested in signing Tomkinson, according to reports.
Mousinho reacts to new Ben Killip contract news
Ben Killip signed a new two-year contract at Portsmouth this week.
The goalkeeper only made two appearances this season, but the Portsmouth hierarchy have seen enough to offer him a new deal.
Reacting to the news, Portsmouth manager John Mousinho said: “We’re delighted that Ben will be remaining at the club, and our goalkeeping options look particularly strong.”
Killip will compete with Nicolas Schmid for a starting place in between the sticks at Fratton Park next season.
