Pompey Supporter’s Trust commissioned the artwork to be painted on the side of the Portsmouth FC shop on Anson Road. The Trust invited supporters to vote for who they wanted to be immortalised with six players gaining the fans favour.
The players chosen were FA Cup final goal scorer Nwankwou Kanu; Premier League promotion winning captain Paul Merson; legendary goalkeeper Alan Knight; prolific goal scorer Guy Whitingham; former Real Madrid and Barcelona legend Robert Prosinecki; and club stalwalt and all round good guy Linvoy Primus.
The work was completed by MurWalls, a group of street artists who have completed projects for Manchester City and West Ham.
Here are 15 amazing pictures of the stunning murals:
