Karim Rekik and Luca Scapuzzi have been loaned out to Portsmouth until the end of the season. With nine games of the season to go, Pompey are bottom of the Championship and currently six points adrift of safety. Having signed from Feyenoord last summer, Rekik became City's youngest ever overseas player when the Dutch defender made his debut against Birmingham City in September, aged just 16 years and 294 days. 20-year-old Luca made two appearances for City in the Carling Cup last autumn before a three-month stint with Oldham, where he scored twice in 17 games under Paul Dickov.  |

Rekik started last night in a 2-0 win over hull. Played Left back though, but any game time is a bonus i guess

When Rekik came on for us at Wolves, he played left back. He seems comfortable in that position.

Definitely, any first team experience is great, hopefully it continues. I like to see us getting young players out on loan to the right clubs while they're still in their development phase because in todays football culture you've got to have 60-70 competitive games under your belt to stand a chance of breaking through to the first team.
