Portsmouth have signed Wigan Athletic's Callum Lang for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old forward has agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal, with the club having an option to extend the deal for an additional 12 months.

He scored 31 goals in 143 games for Wigan, making his debut as a teenager in 2017, and also had four loan spells.

"Callum is a versatile player who's comfortable in any position across the front line," Pompey boss John Mousinho told the club website.

"He's also a proven scorer at this level and has a promotion under his belt with Wigan, so we're delighted to bring him to the club."

Portsmouth have been desperate this window to add an attacking player who can make an immediate impact in League One.

This signing is a big statement. Even last week there were concerns at Pompey whether the finances of this deal would be possible.

It's shaping up as a good January on paper for Pompey. A defender (likely to be Reading's Tom McIntyre) should follow. Owen Moxon from Carlisle remains a possibility and there could even be a fourth addition this week if everything lines up.
