Portsmouth rejected a late bid from Lincoln City for Reeco Hackett-Fairchild, as reported by Football Insider. The Imps were keen to lure the 25-year-old away from Fratton Park before the deadline.

However, Pompey decided not to cash in on him and he will be staying with them until the end of the season at least. He has only missed four games for the Hampshire outfit so far this term and is still in their plans.

Charlton Athletic ace was eyed

Wigan Athletic are believed to have made a move for Charlton Athletic winger Corey Blackett-Taylor, as per London News Online reporter Richard Cawley on Twitter. The Addicks managed to keep hold of the former Aston Villa and Tranmere Rovers man which is a boost for the London club.

He has been with the Addicks since 2021. The ex-England youth international has since scored seven goals in 60 games in all competitions.
