Fernandes deal off

Portsmouth radio staion The Quay is reporting that Fernandes has returned to Portugal after he failed a medical due to a long standing hernia injury.

A fee for the player had been agreed with Benfica, and personal terms had also on the way to being agreed.

While the transfer has collapsed, its still possible it may go ahead with Portsmouth re-assessing Fernandes's fitness before the transfer window closes at the end of August.

This is a big disappointment however it does show we can attract class players to Fratton Park, and it also shows we wont part with money just because we can, we could of signed Fernandes and taken the risk but have played safe.
