Kenny Jackett is Portsmouth’s first-choice target to replace Paul Cook.

Cook joined Wigan on Wednesday, leaving Pompey managerless just a month before pre-season starts.

Jackett’s latest managerial spell ended after just 39 days when he left Rotherham in November.

Sky Sports says the former Millwall boss is set to be named as Pompey’s new manager.

It is Pompey’s first season in England’s third tier in five years after Cook masterminded the club’s League Two success last term.

Jackett, 55, has a good track record in League One, guiding Millwall and Wolves to promotion.
