DARREN Anderton could be on his way back to Pompey after being released by Tottenham after 12 years at White Hart Lane.

Spurs signed the Southampton-born winger in 1992 and, despite numerous injuries, Anderton has played over 350 games for the club in all competitions.

Spurs have also released Gus Poyet and Christian Ziege but skipper Jamie Redknapp has been handed a new one-year deal.
