Pompey ace wants to stay at Fratton Park
Portsmouth striker David Nugent insists he will not be leaving the club during the January transfer window.
The 25-year-old forward's contract is up at the end of the season and cash-strapped Pompey could be tempted to sell rather than risk him leaving on a free.
Nugent has hit seven goals in 24 Championship appearances so far this season and is currently negotiating a new deal with a view to extending his stay at Fratton Park.
Premier League sides Blackpool and Wigan are thought to be keeping tabs on his progress, but the former Bury and Preston man claims he is happy at Portsmouth.
"I'm settled. I will be here until the end of the season," he said.
"I'm still negotiating my contract, so hopefully that can get sorted. We'll see what happens.
"I'm committed to Portsmouth until the end of the season, definitely."
Portsmouth are currently 18th in the second tier and take on Burnley at home on Tuesday night.
