Pompey clear loan slot with Thomas deal

Portsmouth today made the loan signing of Jerome Thomas into a permanent deal with the winger signing a one year contact today. If Thomas plays a certain number of games the deal will entitle Charlton to a fee.

With Premier League clubs only allowed a maximum of two loan signings at one time, Pompey were not able to bring in anyone else on loan with Ben Sahar on loan from Chelsea taking the other slot.

Talking to the Official Pompey site Blues chief executive Peter Storrie said: "It's a simple conversion from a loan deal to a permanent contract for a year. It frees up a loan space for us.

"Jerome could have been recalled by Charlton in January under the terms of his loan, but that's no longer a factor now his deal has been made permanent."

Thomas made his Pompey debut coming off the Bench in the 4-0 hammering against Chelsea.

With this move this will allow Pompey to bring in another player on loan, time will tell if Harry use this.
