Vaughan trains with Portsmouth ahead of move to Fratton Park

James Vaughan is training with Pompey ahead of his impending move to Fratton Park.

The 30-year-old striker has linked up with the Blues, with his season-long loan move from Wigan set to be ratified later today.

The former Everton, Sunderland and Bury man had been linked with a January transfer window move to Bolton, Oxford and Fleetwood.

However, Pompey have clearly won the race for his signature – a move that signals their fifth new arrival this month.
