Slaven Bilic’s agent has confirmed Portsmouth have expressed interest in installing the Croatia boss as manager at Fratton Park.
Dr Sulaiman Al Fahim is planning a major overhaul at Pompey after buying the club and it is believed Paul Hart will be moved on.
A host of big names have been linked with the post, including Sven Goran Eriksson, and Bilic’s agent suggests his client is in the frame.
“Slaven is open to offers and there is interest from Portsmouth,” Bilic’s representative Rudi Vata told The News.
“There are different clubs who want him but he is very interested.
”Portsmouth have tried to get in touch, but there is no concrete offer at this stage.
”But the idea of working with and building the club would excite him.
”Slaven is hungry for the right club with the right ambition because he is a hungry manager."
