Portsmouth have secured the loan services of Sheffield Wednesday centre-forward Caolan Lavery.

The 22-year-old, who has scored six goals in 39 appearances for Wednesday, has agreed to spend the next three months at Fratton Park.

"I'd like to be part of the success that I'm sure Pompey will have this season and I'm looking forward to getting started," he told the club's official website.

"At the age I'm at now, I need to be playing games on a regular basis and scoring goals."

Canada-born Lavery has represented Northern Ireland at Under-21 level.
