Abu Kamara brace helps Inform Portsmouth defeat Shrewsbury Town
by Alie Bittar @bittar32

Portsmouth’s John Mousinho impressed with striker Abu Kamara

John Mousinho has praised Abu Kamara for his performance in Portsmouth’s push for promotion to the Championship. 

On Tuesday, Kamara was handful in their win as Kusini Yengi’s double saw Portsmouth take another step closer to the Championship with a 2-1 victory over Burton Albion.

As a result, Pompey is five points clear of second-placed Derby County and six in front of Bolton Wanderers in third.

Kamara, a 20-year-old on loan from Norwich City, has been a key player for the League One leaders, scoring eight goals and providing eight assists in 38 league matches. 

He has become popular with the supporters, and although Norwich intends to bring him back to Carrow Road next season, they want him to impress suitably in pre-season to join their first-team squad. 

Kamara has a job to do in Portsmouth as they seek to secure their return to the Championship with 12 games remaining. 

Mousinho was impressed with Kamara’s performance in their last match and believes that he has more room for improvement before the end of the season.

The striker is still eligible to represent Sierra Leone despite a report from Football Insider’s reporter Peter O’Rourke that Kamara has turned down a chance to play for the West African nation.
