Portsmouth battling Bolton for Man City striker Benjani

Portsmouth boss Avram Grant wants to bring Benjani Mwaruwari back to Fratton Park.

The Mirror says Grant hopes to beat Bolton Wanderers to the signature of striker Benjani, and will use 'super-agent' Pini Zahavi to swing the deal.

The Zimbabwe international is currently playing reserve-team football at Manchester City and has little chance of a first team return.

Would have Benjani back in a flash!! He wouldn't be in the ANC as Zimbabwe didn't qualify this time round.

As a City fan this makes sense to me, but why would any club buy a player about to be embroiled in the African Nations, just makes me question the motives behind this United Biased Website more and more..!! Where is this article coming from.. ?
