Portsmouth have signed striker Elias Sorensen from Danish second-tier side Esbjerg for an undisclosed fee.
The former Denmark Under-21 international has joined Pompey on a three-year deal, with a club option for a further 12 months.
Sorensen, 24, joined Newcastle United in 2017, making six appearance for their Under-21 side, and had loan spells at Blackpool and Carlisle before returning home to join Esbjerg three years ago.
“Elias is an incredibly talented young centre-forward with plenty of potential," Pompey boss John Mousinho told the club website, external.
“He’s already been over in England and so has had a taste of the game over here. He then went back to Denmark and enjoyed a huge amount of success – particularly last season."
Sørensen helped Esbjerg to the third-tier title last season and finished as the division’s leading scorer, with 24 goals from 30 appearances.
