Paul Hart will be in charge of Portsmouth next season.

The Sun says new owner Dr Sulaiman Al Fahim arrives in London today to finalise his £60million takeover and expects to take control at Fratton Park on July 24.

The Arabian billionaire wants Hart to stay in charge for next season after scrapping plans to bring in big-name bosses Roberto Mancini or Sven Goran Eriksson.
