Pompey are turning their attention away from a summer move for Matt Butcher.

The News understands a homecoming for the midfielder is looking increasingly unlikely after his exit from Accrington Stanley.

The 25-year-old from Denmead has repeatedly been linked with a switch to Fratton Park and is a free agent this summer.

Butcher is a player who has interested Danny Cowley, but the Pompey boss appears to have other priorities at present.
