Breaking: Huge Portsmouth boost as inspirational midfielder pledges his future to Fratton Park

The Blues skipper has put pen to paper on a two-year contract, potentially keeping him at Fratton Park for the rest of his playing days.

John Mousinho was desperate to keep the 33-year-old who, along with Connor Ogilvie, were the only two out-of-contract players from the title-winning squad offered fresh deals at the season’s end.

The head coach last week told The News that he was ‘confident’ Pack would remain following encouraging talks.

Now he has followed Ogilvie in pledging his future to the Blues - in time to be present for the start of pre-season, which begins on Thursday.

Pack has made 78 appearances and scored eight goals since returning to Pompey in the summer of 2022.

And will remain a pivotal figure for the Blues’ first season back in the Championship after 12 years away.
