Portsmouth boss John Mousinho has delivered a brutally honest update on his future, insisting he “doesn’t want to mug off the faithful” as speculation linking him with Bristol City continues to gather momentum. The highly rated manager, who has earned praise for stabilizing Pompey and restoring belief at Fratton Park, refused to hide behind vague answers when pressed on the rumors.
Mousinho admitted that interest from a Championship club is difficult to ignore, but emphasized his respect for Portsmouth supporters remains at the heart of any decision. “They deserve transparency,” he said, underlining his commitment to handling the situation with integrity.
Fans have responded with mixed emotions—admiration for his honesty, yet concern about a potential departure at a crucial stage. With Bristol City reportedly circling, the coming weeks could prove decisive.
For now, Mousinho remains focused on the job at hand, but his words suggest a defining moment is approaching for both him and the club.
