Benni to join Portsmouth?

Cape Town - Blackburn and South African striker Benni McCarthy is set to join Portsmouth on loan in the January transfer window.

According to people.co.uk, Spanish clubs Espanyol and Deportivo La Coruna are also interested in the South African, who is keen on regular first team action to keep his slim hopes of a Bafana Bafana call-up alive ahead of the 2010 World Cup.

If McCarthy had to join Portsmouth, he would team up with his national skipper Aaron Mokoena who joined Pompey from Blackburn earlier this year.
