Gavin Whyte will really excite Portsmouth fans says John Mousinho

Portsmouth boss John Mousinho labelled new signing Gavin Whyte "an excellent addition" and someone who will "really excite" the Fratton Park faithful.

The Northern Ireland international has put pen to paper on a three-year deal with the club following his departure from Cardiff at the end of last season.

Mousinho played with Whyte at Oxford and is relishing the opportunity to link up with the player again.

“Out of all the players we’ve signed, he’s the first one that I actually played with and he’s a great character," he told the club website.

“He had an outstanding first season when he came over to Oxford from Northern Ireland and went to Cardiff off the back of that.

“Gavin is a pacy and direct winger, who can carry the ball and really catches the eye whenever he’s on the pitch.

“He’s someone that we believe will really excite everybody at Fratton Park and be an excellent addition to our side.”
