Portsmouth have dismissed claims of legal action from Lens over unpaid transfer fees.
Blues chief Mark Jacob dismissed the claim of Gervais Martel, the Lens president, who stated earlier this week that his club are taking action through "the European football tribunals as well as civil courts" for further unpaid fees, following the moves of Aruna Dindane and Nadir Belhadj.
"There's no legal action pending as far as I'm concerned on either of those," Jacob told the Guardian. "There has been correspondence with lawyers acting on behalf of [Lens] and we're trying to reach agreement. But with Belhadj we thought we'd reached agreement, and its now a question of technicalities now of actually going through it and agreeing with them the payment schedule. That's all."
