Premiership high-flyers Portsmouth seem to be leading the race to sign Luke Varney during the January transfer window.
24-year-old Varney who has only just signed an extension at the Alex has been in a rich vein of form scoring 6 goals in the last 6 league and cup matches.
Other teams linked with the former Quorn hitman are Aston Villa and Southampton. It also seems that a new team has entered the fray with Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder also seeming interested with the £500k rated striker.
