Joe Morrell has been selected in the Wales squad for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
The 25-year-old Pompey midfielder will be looking to add to his 30 international caps in Qatar this winter.
He joins up with the Dragons following the Blues’ League One away match at Morecambe on Saturday.
Rob Page’s side are in Group B and take on USA and Iran before a mouth-watering clash with England.
Wales will be competing at the World Cup for the first time in 1958, although Morrell was part of the squad that reached the knockout stages of the European Championship last year.
