Portsmouth have signed former Blackburn and Wigan midfielder David Thompson on a free transfer.
The 28-year-old was released by The Latics at the end of last season after a short stint at The JJB stadium.
Thompson only joined Wigan in January but injuries restricted him to just seven starts for Paul Jewell's men and he was allowed to leave the club during the summer.
Prior to his switch to Wigan, Thompson had enjoyed a relatively successful spell with Blackburn Rovers which also saw him called up to the England squad on two occasions.
The former Liverpool trainee becomes Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp's second signing of the summer following the loan signing of Glen Johnson last month.
Thompson is unlikely to be the last new face at Fratton Park this summer as Redknapp searches vigorously for quality additions ahead of the new Premiership campaign.
Peruvian Juan Vargas and Benfica midfielder Manuel Fernandes have both been strongly linked with a move to the South Coast during the summer.

米士達加盟馬體會 28 July, 2006 11:20 +0800
華倫西亞前鋒米士達成功轉投馬德里體育會。
米士達在華倫西亞己失去正選席位，故此萌生去意。
上季華倫西亞由科利斯執教下較重用韋拿及艾馬攻堅，而米士達則擔任後備居多。今季華倫西亞簽得摩連迪斯加盟，令米士達相信亦不會受到重用，故此決定離開加盟馬體會。
米士達是馬體會今季簽下的第六位新將，而球隊成功留下托里斯下，今季軍容將比上季更強。
Aimar --> Zaragoza :eek:

查爾頓連簽兩將
查爾頓簽下效力紐卡素的菲爾與及利物浦的後衛查奧爾。
兩人均在所屬球會得不到重用，而查爾頓希望二人能夠加強球隊的防守能力。
兩人均分別以二百萬英鎊轉投，並與查爾頓簽約三年。
05 年一月加盟紐卡素的菲爾是桑拿士時代的舊將，在路達上任後己不受重用; 而查奧爾則是利物浦陣中後備居多且偶有犯錯。
今屆紅軍簽得奧利尼奧，令查奧爾上陣機會更少，因此決定另覓發展。

Kuyt's Liverpool transfer imminent
Feyenoord striker Dirk Kuyt appears to have secured his dream move to Liverpool and could be in the squad for next Saturday's match against Sheffield United, subject to clearance.
As previously reported by KOPTALK, a fee was agreed earlier in the week leaving both clubs to now try and come to an agreement on how it would be structured.
It was at this stage that the proposed purchase of Daniel Alves collapsed. The fee was agreed but how it would be paid caused the problems.
Hopefully we won't see a repeat of that farce. Early indications are that everything is falling into place nicely.
Although the transfer window doesn't close until August 31st, Rafa has requested that the club pull out all the stops to get Kuyt on board as soon as possible.
There had been suggestions that Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry was going to try and hold out until the end of the the month in the hope of securing a better deal but Rafa would like the player to be available for selection against Sheffield United on the 19th August or the following match against West Ham United on the 26th.
A source at the club said: "Rafa wants Dirk in and available for selection for Sheffield.
"If a deal isn't in place until later in the week, he could miss the game as he won't have had much time to prepare but he could at least be ready for the visit of West Ham.
"Arrangements are in place to conduct a medical. We're just waiting for Rick [Parry] to provide us with an update. That may not be possible until Monday."
The Dutch striker is in England for today's friendly between Reading and Feyenoord.
Real Betis winger Israel Bascon has spent the last week on trial at Chelsea.
The English champions have long been linked with a move for Betis' star man Joaquin, but now they may make a move for his understudy.
The 19-year-old, who featured several times for Betis' first team last season, has been told by coach Javier Irureta that he is not part of his plans.
"He needs to play because he is young," said Irureta.
"Another thing is the level in which he can play, what is clear is that here we have Joaquin and we cannot offer him any playing time."
A transfer to Real Madrid's second team - Castilla - was lined up after the two clubs agreed a deal, but that move failed to materialise.
He instead was handed a trial by Chelsea and has been trying to impress this week.
Israel, as he is known, is hoping he will be offered a deal next week.
"The experience is incredible because there are players from so many countries," said the young winger.
"I do not know what will happen, but I hope to stay at Chelsea. It is a big club and it would be perfect."
United target set to go on the market Aug 12 2006
Newcastle target Obafemi Martins will seek urgent talks with Inter Milan officials this weekend after the arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the San Siro cast fresh doubt on the striker's Serie A future.
A player who has risen to the top of Glenn Roeder's wanted list in recent days appears to be the odd man out at Inter after the Swedish international joined from Juventus in a £17m deal and having already asked to leave the club once this week, Martins will again spell out his concerns to Massimo Moratti. The club's president is reluctant to sanction the Nigerian's sale but, having signed both Ibrahimovic and Hernan Crespo this summer, Moratti knows a player foreseeing a future on the substitutes' bench is determined to leave.
United and Valencia head a queue of clubs chasing the 21-year-old (pictured right) and, with Martins agitating to leave, a significant bid would be difficult to turn down.
Roeder has spent all summer attempting to strengthen his strike force and, with his team's first Premiership fixture of the new campaign just seven days away, the Magpies boss is determined to press home his interest.
The striker's agent has claimed United have already made an offer and Newcastle will be keen to get an answer as quickly as possible.The striker's agent has claimed United have already made an offer and Newcastle will be keen to get an answer as quickly as possible.
"It's not going to be easy to get a player of Martins' quality to Newcastle but I do like him and I don't mind saying that," said the United boss last night. "He's a player I admire and we're looking at the situation at Inter Milan very closely."
Although Roeder's need for striking reinforcements is the greatest, the next acquisition to his first-team squad is expected to be a midfield player.
Thomas Gravesen's representatives have held talks with United officials and, although Middlesbrough and Everton are among a clutch of clubs pursuing the Real Madrid schemer, he is expected to become a Newcastle player at the start of next week.homas Gravesen's representatives have held talks with United officials and, although Middlesbrough and Everton are among a clutch of clubs pursuing the Real Madrid schemer, he is expected to become a Newcastle player at the start of next week.

City land Isaksson
Manchester City have signed Swedish international goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson from Rennes.
City have beaten off strong interest from Charlton to land the 24-year-old - who signed a three-year deal at Eastlands on Saturday.
Isaksson comes as a direct replacement for David James - who has sealed his move to Portsmouth.
The Swede revealed how much of a bearing Stuart Pearce had on him choosing City.
"Pearce believes in me, that feels very good," Isaksson told Sportbladet.
"My ambition is still to play for one of the absolutely best clubs, but, right now, it feels very good.
"The opponents will be substantially better than in the French league. It's more physical in the Premier League.
"The keepers are not as protected as in other leagues, you need to be aware of that."
Rennes boss Pierre Dreossi confirmed he is planning to use youngster Simon Pouplin as his new first choice, although he was also considering a move for Christophe Revault.
"Christophe Revault could be a solution. But the keeper we will hire will be here to help Simon Pouplin, the number 1," said Dreossi.
