Portsmouth are confident manager Avram Grant will stay.
The Daily Mail says Grant was locked in crisis talks with Portsmouth on Thursday night after he offered his resignation as manager when two players were sold behind his back.
The club were confident that they had talked the former Chelsea boss into staying. But Grant and chief executive Peter Storrie are both fuming after Younes Kaboul and Asmir Begovic were sold to Tottenham without them knowing.
The deals were sanctioned by owner Ali Al Faraj's controversial financial advisor Danny Azougy. Grant had previously insisted that no players would be sold without his approval. Fees for both players are still to be finalised.
