Kanu left Pompey in 2012 and reports at that time stated that he had opened a lawsuit against the club, to recover an estimated £3million he was owed, after a successful six-year stay, in which he scored the winning goal of the FA Cup final in 2008.
However, the former Arsenal and Inter Milan man, has dismissed those stories and revealed he has written off the debt, to help the club, who has since dropped into the third tier of English football.
“I can now reveal the story that has been around since I left Portsmouth,” he said. “I did not ask the club for millions of Pounds; I dropped the whole matter of wage money because I know the club has big problems.”
Kanu has not played for another team since he left England and he has given a hint that it might be time to retire from the game.
He said: “The reason I have not returned is because I feel it is time for me to hang my boots up as a player. I will be coaching and promoting my foundation through football.
“The thing that makes me the most mad is that the media have got the story completely wrong. Life goes on and forgiveness is number one for me. I just enjoy life and hope the best for my former team.”
