Portsmouth chief: We'll play it cool over Yakubu

Portsmouth chief Peter Storrie says they won't seek to unsettle Yakubu Aiyegbeni at Middlesbrough.

"I think obviously Harry has made it quite clear that Yak is someone he likes," Storrie told Sky Sports News. "But he's a Middlesbrough player and from what we understand Middlesbrough, understandably, don't want to sell him.

"So, unless that situation changes in any way, we won't be any party to upsetting the player.

"If he's at Middlesbrough, and happy with Middlesbrough, that's fine, we've got other options.

"We are looking at a couple of other areas in terms of strikers, and other areas of the park as well.

"We are possibly looking for a couple more before the deadline."
