Hungarian striker keen to make an impact in England

Portsmouth have added to their attacking options by signing former Werder Bremen striker Marko Futacs on a one-year contract. The Hungarian had spent the past two years with Bremen, although he enjoyed last season on loan at Ingolstadt. The 21-year-old, who also has the option of a further 12 months at Fratton Park, is excited to have completed a move to the Championship club. "It's very exciting and I'm very happy to be here," Futacs told the club's official website. "It's fantastic to come to England and I will work very hard to impress the fans. "I've trained with the team and it's different from how things were in France and Germany, but I think this is the best place for me - the English game suits me and the way I play. "My first job is to get into the team and get used to the style of play here, but I am a striker so obviously I am also looking to score goals. "I've heard the Pompey fans are fantastic supporters and I can't wait to play in front of them." Skysports.com revealed earlier this month that several English clubs were keeping tabs on Futacs.
