Pompey deny transfer charge
15 Aug 2008 - 07:59:13
Portsmouth have denied any wrongdoing in the transfer of striker Benjani Mwaruwari to Manchester City, having been charged with a breach of rules by the Football Association.
The FA are unhappy with Pompey's use of agent Willie McKay in the transaction, but Pompey insist that they have done nothing wrong.
A club statement read: "Portsmouth Football Club strongly deny charges by the FA alleging a breach of their regulations concerning the transfer of Benjani Mwaruwari to and from the club.
"We did not pay an agent when Benjani joined the club from Auxerre in January 2006 and his transfer to Manchester City in January this year was approved at the time by the Premier League and the FA's compliance unit.
"This is nothing more than a technicality which we will strongly contest."
