Pompey snap up youth pair

Portsmouth have signed teenagers Paris Cowan-Hall and Callum Reynolds from Blue Square Premier Division side Rushden & Diamonds.

Last season Cowan-Hall had two trials at Chelsea and also a week-long spell at Manchester United but Pompey have made their move, paying undisclosed compensation to the non-league club for the 16-year-old striker and his 17-year-old team-mate.
