Pompey is apparently looking at taking Lee Naylor from Celtic, offering 1.5m. Celtic want 3m for a guy who cost them 600k plus a youngster two years back, and is on the slight decline after peaking last season. Clubs know that the English Premiership teams will pay over the top for marginal talent, and will drive a hard bargain when negotiating, as they should.
