Midfielder Cooke moved to Posh from Championship club Middlesbrough yesterday. He is manager Steve Evans’ 15th signing of the summer and there could be another one before Posh start their League One campaign at home to Bristol Rovers on Saturday (August 4) with a new striker the most likely arrival.

Posh are sending a strong squad to take part in a Northants FA competition tonight. The Maunsell Cup Final is contested by either Posh or Northampton and the top semi-professional club in Northamptonshire every season.
