Kalinic excited as Portsmouth agree fee with Hajduk Split

Portsmouth have clinched agreement for Hajduk Split striker Nikola Kalinic.

The Daily Mail says Portsmouth manager Paul Hart has moved swiftly to fill the gap left by Peter Crouch's £9million departure to Tottenham by agreeing a £5.5m fee with Hajduk Split for Kalinic.

Kalinic said: "My dream has come true. It is not yet finalised but God willing everything will be okay. I will be going to England to have a medical and sign the contract.

"Portsmouth is a big club and the Premier League is the best in the world.

"Playing in Portsmouth would be a great challenge for me, an opportunity to prove myself and to justify the faith shown in me, particularly by people like Paul Hart who wanted me to come."
