But since Bass has recovered from his setback, Turnbull's been left out of the past three match-day squads.
Having had little experience of senior football during his career, Pompey are keen for the 22-year-old to start playing on a regular basis in non-league football.

‘Duncan has been working hard. With Alex Bass and Craig MacGillivray above him, he does need to get out on loan to play some games.

Turnbull will still be able to complete a loan move to a non-league club after tomorrow’s domestic transfer deadline for Premier League and EFL clubs.
He is out of contract at the end of June, although Pompey hold the option of an additional 12 months.
