Sports News - Portsmouth add 2 Players to Squad

For all you sports fans out there who care about up to date (or week late) sports news, I decided to post the last transfer news from the English Premier league on my blog since most of the UAE papers (the national published the story, don't know about the others, Arabic papers certainly didn't) seemed "interested" in this news. They've published news about Nigerian players signing up for Swedish clubs and games between Honduras and Trinidad and Tobago (not really, but just to illustrate irrelevance) and for "some reason" chose to ignore this...

So here goes

Portsmouth, famously known as Pompey by their fans and Premiership followers, have succeeded in strengthening their 2009/2010 squad by adding Hassan Yebda, the young French midfielder on loan from Portuguese club, Benfica as well completing the signing of Israel international Tal Ben Haim from Abu Dhabi owned Manchester City football club.





"I've come here to give 100% in each game and no less" said Ben Haim on his intentions to help the club which, after four weeks of premiership action, sits uncomfortably at the bottom of the table with four losses out of four.

Sulaiman Al Fahim, the club owner and Abu Dhabi business man, will hopefully lead a revamp at the club and return it to its rightful place in the top half of the table. These two acquisitions are just the start.
