Portsmouth will offer Nigerian striker Nwankwo Kanu a new deal, but five other players have been shown the door.

The Fratton Park outfit have confirmed Noe Pamarot, Lauren, Djimi Traore, Glen Little and Jerome Thomas have all left Pompey after their contracts expired.

However, Pompey executive chairman Peter Storrie confirmed that veteran striker Kanu, 32, and experienced defender Sol Campbell, 34, will be offered new terms at Fratton Park.

Storrie told the club's official website: "Kanu has the option of another year, which he is considering.

"There are not any discussions going on with Sol at the moment. In terms of whether there will be further discussions, we'll look at that next week."

The pair were instrumental in Pompey's FA Cup success in 2008, with Kanu scoring the winning goal and Campbell captaining the side in Portsmouth's 1-0 victory over Cardiff City.
