Wynter Is Coming

Last updated : 07 July 2014 By Jim Bonner

Pompey have signed 20-year-old defender Alex Wynter on a season long loan from Crystal Palace.

Wynter spent parts of last season on loan at Eastbourne, Sutton and Colchester and also has made a couple of senior appearances for his parent club. He can play at centre back but he's more likely to challenge Danny East and Adam Webster for the right back position.

Andy Awford has stated that he is an athletic defender who will compliment other members of the squad but only time will tell if he's able to step up his game and become a regular.

In other transfer news, talks are ongoing to bring Swindon striker Miles Storey on loan and 22-year-old box-to-box midfielder Chris Atkinson has also been rumoured to be on Pompey's radar after his release from Huddersfield.

Expect plenty more transfer activity in the coming weeks.
