Reuben Swann has revealed his debt of gratitude to both AFC Sudbury and Portsmouth after completing a dream move to the newly-promoted second-tier club for an undisclosed fee.
The 18-year-old midfielder, who has just finished a two-year course at AFC Sudbury’s academy, began pre-season training with Pompey this week after signing a two-year contract last Wednesday.
But things could have been very different after his trial on the south coast in November, his first with a pro club since being released from Colchester United aged 16, ended in a serious injury.
Speaking to SuffolkNews, he explained: “I went out on trial in November after a good start to the season and got injured, I did my lateral meniscus (knee) and had surgery on it.
