Mandaric excited by Mezague signing

Portsmouth chairman Milan Mandaric believes signing Valery Mezague this week makes his squad the strongest it has ever been in the Premiership.

The midfielder became Pompey’s ninth summer signing after they agreed a season-long loan deal with Montpellier – paying a fee of around £500,000 (€607,700) with a view to a permanent £1.3m (€1.6m) deal.
