She has therefore completed a permanent transfer to AFC Bournemouth for an undisclosed fee. Big loss for Pompey, and difficult to replace. Talented young winger, full of goals!

Well it seems we've signed his brother Luke. Lots of South Africans have suddenly become Portsmouth fans judging by Facebook, kinda amusing lol

Looks like we're 'going in for the kill' this season. When we win the league, Southampton fans are going to have to 'cover my/their eyes' I'd say our promotion chances are 'bulletproof'
please log in to view this image Portsmouth have signed 5' 10" tall French forward Florian Bianchini on a season-long loan from fellow Championship club Swansea City. Bianchini, 24, scored three goals in 38 appearances for Swansea last season after joining from French club Bastia for about £2m in August 2024. He managed only eight league starts in his debut campaign at Swansea. Not a prolific goal scorer, but hopefully he and Aussie Thomas Waddingham will be utilised as cover for main striker Colby Bishop.

The 24-year-old Northern Ireland international was a regular member of the Pompey side which won promotion from League One in 2023-24 and scored 14 goals in 81 games at Fratton Park. Lane joined Portsmouth from Fleetwood Town in January 2023 after starting his career at Hyde United.
A player you always got maximum effort from. I wish him very well indeed. At a more cold blooded level though he did struggle to look up to championship level last season.
