Cardiff City and Plymouth Argyle receive transfer boost after Portsmouth FC revelation
Portsmouth have been reported to be interested in Marc Leonard but latest developments suggests that isn’t the case.
Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Marc Leonard is not someone that is of interest to Portsmouth as things stand, as reported by The News.
Pompey look on course to finally end their long stay in League One and return to second-tier action after what has so far been an excellent campaign.
The South Coast outfit is leading the way at the top of the table and could have one foot in the Championship after this hectic Easter weekend.
So, with the season closely coming to an end, transfer talk has started to gather pace, with Leonard being someone who is gaining a lot of attention.
Cardiff City and Swansea City are among the sides interested in Marc Leonard
Marc Leonard is currently in his second loan spell with Northampton Town. After helping the club achieve promotion from League Two last season, he returned for a second spell in the summer.
The 22-year-old has once again been a key player for the Cobblers, as he’s scored five goals and recorded six assists in 40 League One appearances.
That form hasn’t gone unnoticed, with teams from League One and the Championship taking note.
It has been reported before that Coventry City are keeping an eye on the Scottish midfielder, while Portsmouth have also been credited with an interest in the player in the past.
Then it has been added by the Daily Record that, as well as these two sides being interested, Championship sides Cardiff City, Swansea City, Preston, and Plymouth Argyle are also keeping a watchful eye on Leonard.
Portsmouth’s stance on Marc Leonard
That same outlet did comment that Portsmouth manager John Mousinho was in watchful attendance for Northampton’s 1-0 win over Derby on Saturday, as he was keeping an eye on Marc Leonard.
However, Mousinho came out and insisted that his visit to the Sixfields wasn’t to do with Leonard but was in fact because he wanted to watch the Rams ahead of his team’s game against them.
