Wycombe have signed Portsmouth midfielder Marlon Pack on a one-month loan deal. The 18-year-old has played in over 50 academy and reserve games for the Barclays Premier League side and will go straight into Peter Taylor`s squad for Saturday`s home game against Bristol Rovers. Taylor told the club`s official website: "We wanted to bring in a holding midfielder and although Marlon is young he fits the bill perfectly." He added: "With Tommy Doherty injured it was important we got someone in that can play that position. Pack told Portsmouth`s official website: "Reserve team football is good, but this is a good opportunity for me to play first-team football. "It will be a great experience for me to learn from someone like Peter Taylor, who has got so much knowledge."
