Skysports/Graeme Bailey -Pompey win chase for keeper - QPR youngster opts for Fratton Park move
Skysports.com can reveal that Portsmouth have won the race for Queens Park Rangers' highly-rated goalkeeper Liam O'Brien.
The 16-year-old has been chased by a string of Premier League clubs, but has opted for a move to Fratton Park.
In recent weeks, O'Brien has been on trial at Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester United, Newcastle United and Sunderland, in addition to training with Pompey.
Having assessed his options, the promising shot-stopper has agreed to link up with Harry Redknapp's side on the South Coast.
O'Brien has accepted a deal until the end of the season and will sign a three-year professional contract when he turns 17.
Portsmouth have paid an undisclosed sum to QPR in order to secure the signature of the coveted keeper. Skysports
