Israel defender Tal Ben Haim has left cash-strapped Portsmouth, the club have confirmed.

He finally reached a compromise deal over his wages following lengthy negotiations with the south-coast club.

In a statement, Pompey administrator Trevor Birch said: "I am pleased to announce that we have reached a compromise agreement with Tal Ben Haim, who will now leave the club."

It is believed that by agreeing terms with Ben Haim, this has eased fears of the club going into liquidation and comes a day before the August 10 cut-off point set by Birch.
