Portsmouth are still unsure whether Sol Campbell will be starting next season as part of their squad after failing to reach agreement over a new contract.

The veteran former England international is now out of contract at Fratton Park but is currently away on holiday.

Campbell has made over 100 appearances during three seasons with the south coast club.

"With Sol there is definitely no contract at the moment," executive chairman Peter Storrie told The News.

"We've held talks but Sol is currently on holiday and we are waiting for him to return so we can meet again."

Meanwhile, Storrie has moved to clarify the contract situations of a number of other players whose deals at Fratton Park are also up.

He added: "Hermann Hreidarsson has been offered a year's contract, while Sean Davis has turned his down and will be leaving.

"The rest of them have all gone. I don't think that will surprise too many people.

"We also will not be following up (with on-loan Liverpool winger) Jermaine Pennant. He will not be joining us permanently.

"A lot of these decisions were not hard to make. A lot of these players weren't featuring in the team, so it was best they moved on. I don't think anyone will be shocked."
