Denver Hume's move to Portsmouth is edging closer with Sunderland reportedly set to bank £200,000 for the defender - with a significant sell-on clause.
The 23-year-old is thought to have travelled to the South Coast to undertake a medical and finalise personal terms, and would become Pompey boss Danny Cowley's first permanent signing this month.
Hume was linked with Portsmouth last week and he was a notable absentee when the sides met at the Stadium of Light on Saturday, with Lee Johnson confirming after the match that Pompey had made a verbal offer and admitting he had left the player out because to involve him would have been 'unfair' on him in the circumstances.
