Preparations for the new Championship campaign continued on Monday, with Pompey marking their full return to pre-season.
Every member of John Mousinho’s squad were present at the club’s Hilsea training base, which included a number of familiar faces who rejoined the group following injury.
Joseph Bursik, Marlon Pack, Zak Swanson, Jacob Farrell, Tayo Singerr, Josh Murphy, Ebou Adams and Mark Kosznovszky were put through their paces with running drills as they continued their respective rehabilitation.
Meanwhile, the other members of the head coach’s squad were split into two groups to perform ball-related work.
The News were given exclusive access to the Blues’ first full day back in pre-season and our photographer Habibur Rahman was there to capture the key moments from Monday’s session.
