Hide AdVaughan has already trained with his new Blues team-mates, taking part in a practice session this morning.
And it seems his move to PO4 has generated a lot of interest on social media.
@dazza_nics: Lovely bit of business as it stands.. but as with everything time will tell! If he can help get us promoted and then we can get him for a free.. that would be a perfect bit of business

Hide Ad@adarkelimited: I want to be positive but hard to get excited about James Vaughan sorry #pompey.
@tj_malley: Capturing James Vaughan is nothing short of brilliant from Jackett.
Our strike force has gone from average to one of the best in the league within a matter of days.
This has been a fantastic transfer window for #Pompey imo
@ashleybarfoot24: James Vaughan strikes me as a type of signing where Jackett, like redknapp back in our championship winning season, knows we need a bit of experience to steer us through, redknapp brought in Sherwood and Stone, the rest is history.

Hide Ad@puckdropuk: Happy with James Vaughan as another striker. Nice one Kenny and team #Pompey #WAFC
@jackOsmondSmith: Whilst James Vaughan is clearly a very good player, as a team that only ever plays 1 up front and never has more than 2 strikers on the pitch at one time, do we really need 4 strikers?
Surely it will make players unhappy and unsettle the good dressing room atmosphere #pompey
@tylerporter15: James Vaughan could be one hell of a signing for us. Remember him scoring goals for fun at Bury and Huddersfield not too long ago. That Ipswich fella can stay there though.

Hide Ad@clivepfc1898: James Vaughan finally a player with some pedigree, although not sure he’s what we need the midfield still weak and depth on the wings. #Pompey
@ZDPFC: If we pull off James Vaughan that’s an absolute madness.
Serious, serious piece of business that.
Just don’t know how we’d fit 4 strikers into the system.
