Portsmouth's Papa Bouba Diop is back from the African Nations Cup and set to reclaim his place in the side at Bolton on Saturday.Pompey are also waiting on Nigerian stars Nwankwo Kanu and John Utalka to return to Fratton Park after their nation was knocked out of the competition along with Diop's Senegal last week.

A Pompey spokesman said: "Papa has been in training since Monday. He arrived back in England last Saturday but just too late to be considered for the Chelsea game.

"We understand Kanu and Utaka are also on their way back but, of course, Kanu has had a knee injury which we need to assess."
