Henry is out of contract at the ABAX Stadium at the end of this season and no new deal has yet been offered, even though there is no chance of McGee returning to the club next season.

Tyler is also out of contract. Negotiations are currently ongoing with a player who made his 496th appearance for the club last Saturday (March 18). It’s understood Tyler is keen on playing again next season when he will be 40.

Other Posh players out of contract at the end of this season include forward Paul Taylor and midfielder Harry Anderson.

Posh have a two-year option on Anderson (20) which they are expected to trigger, but Taylor might struggle to have his one-year deal extended, even though manager Grant McCann remains a big fan.

No definite decisions on player contracts are expected until the end of the current campaign.
