Published: June 17, 2022Portsmouth have identified Anglo-Nigerian centre-forward Kion Etete as a priority signing in the summer transfer window.
According to The News, the Tottenham Hotspur starlet has moved to head of Portsmouth's striker targets and a permanent deal is being eyed by the League One club.
Pompey believe Etete could be available on a permanent basis, with his current contract expiring at the end of next season.

According to a Tottenham Hotspur insider, Etete is on the radar of the Nigeria Football Federation ahead of the 2023 U23 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
