Storrie thrilled with Portsmouth academy developments

Portsmouth chief Peter Storrie says they're delighted with the way the club's academy setup is taking shape.

He said: "The youth development side of the club is moving forward unbelievably. In the last couple of weeks I've been in France signing a couple of 16-year-olds, who are fantastic stars.

"This is what we need to do nowadays. Paul Hart told me today there is another boy we are looking at from Denmark. These kids are 15 or 16, but are hopefully going to be the long-term future of the club.

"These players are not going to be just from the UK, but also from around Europe. It just shows you much things have changed here in the last few years."
