Portsmouth organise behind-closed-doors friendly at Reading

The Blues' reserves travel to Reading on Tuesday, September 11 (1pm).

Dion Donohue is earmarked to play a full 90 minutes as he continues his rehabilitation from his groin injury.

The Welshman will only make his second appearance since last campaign after missing the entire pre-season schedule '“ firstly through foot blisters and then glandular fever. 

Donohue, 25, featured for 62 minutes in Pompey Reserves' 2-1 Premier League Cup qualifier defeat at Plymouth on Tuesday.

The former Chesterfield man captained the side at Home Park. He was handed a 62-minute run-out before being replaced by James Whiting. 

The clash against the Royals will be the Blues' second behind-closed-doors friendly this term.

They defeated Swindon 3-1 at the club's Roko training base last month.

The likes of Luke McGee, Joe Mason and Louis Dennis '“ who still awaits his Blues debut '“ are also set to be involved.
