The Sky Blues completed the loan signing of Conor Chaplin on Deadline Day at the end of the 2018 Summer window.
The move was with an option to buy, which was taken up in January, when the striker completed his permanent move.
The Worthing born forward came through the ranks at Pompey, going on to make 122 appearances and score 25 goals for the South Coast side after making his debut in December 2014.
Chaplin was part of the Portsmouth side that won the League Two title in 2016-17, appearing in 39 league matches in that successful season.
Following the Sky Blues promotion back to League One, Chaplin was identified as a top target for Mark Robins, who finally got his man.
Last season, the striker scored eight goals in his debut season for the Sky Blues, including two superb free kicks against Bradford and Plymouth.
