Callum Lang: 'I'm even fitter going into this season'
Portsmouth forward Callum Lang says he's now the fittest he's ever been after missing 10 of the last 13 games last season with a hamstring injury.
Prior to his injury, Lang was a regular feature in the starting XI during Pompey's Championship campaign but was not able to complete a full 90 minutes in any of the final three games upon return from his injury.
However, he has found a silver lining from his time in the recovery room.
"Coming back to pre-season, it's the fittest I've ever been," Lang told BBC Radio Solent.
"I'd like to think as a player I'm pretty fit and I always have been. It's what I pride myself on a lot, my energy and getting around the pitch.
"But I think I've stepped it up a level and I'm even fitter going into this season. The injury and a bit more of a break has let me hit this summer a bit harder."
