Ex Newcastle United striker Elias Sorensen scores after 23 minutes on return to England – Watch it here

Elias Sorensen back in English football and back with a bang!

An official announcement (see below) from Portsmouth revealed they had signed the now 24-year-old striker.

Back in 2016, Elias Sorensen arrived as a 16-year-old at Newcastle United but despite scoring plenty of goals below first-team level, never made the breakthrough into the NUFC first-team.

Out on loan from Newcastle, Elias Sorensen also failed to make an impression in the lower leagues.

Maybe simply a case of needing time to develop with experience, in recent years scoring goals in lower leagues in Holland and Denmark, Elias Sorensen earned the right to grab this new chance to impress in England.

Portsmouth promoted as champions of League One last season, so now Elias Sorensen with the chance to show what he can do in the Championship.

Saturday saw them given possibly the toughest possible start to the season, away at Elland Road against Leeds United.

Struijk gave the home side a 10th-minute lead via a penalty, only for 23 minutes into his debut, a left foot shot from Elias Sorensen getting him off the mark on his return to England.
