Bergkamp ‘unlikely’ to join Portsmouth

New Portsmouth boss Tony Adams insists that it is ‘unlikely’ that Dennis Bergkamp will be joining his coaching staff.

Bergkamp has been linked with a job at Pompey ever since Adams took over as manager at the club, when Harry Redknapp left for Tottenham.

“There are a lot of options available to me but it is unlikely to be Dennis Bergkamp,” he said.

“He has got a fantastic presence on the training pitch but I do not know what he is like as a coach because I have never seen him in action.

“I need to put things in place and talk to other people. Whoever it is doesn’t have to have played alongside me at Arsenal – a young Jose Mourinho would do me fine.

“There are a lot of considerations when it comes to compiling a backroom staff. We have a lot of French players here so maybe the French route is an option. We’ll take our time.”
