Former Peterborough United star Archie Collins signs for League One rivals and pens goodbye message to Posh fans
Former Peterborough United star Archie Collins has officially completed his move to Huddersfield Town.
Collins departed Posh on a free this summer after the expiration of his contract but is yet to secure a new club with just days to go until the start of the new season.
Collins played 159 times for Posh in three seasons following his move from Exeter City for an undisclosed fee in June 2023. He scored eight goals and will be the last regular player from the Posh side of the 2023-24 that made it into the play-offs to leave London Road.
He has now signed a two-year contract and become Huddersfield’s seventh summer signings.
In a message to Posh fans, Collins said: “I wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone at Peterborough United for welcoming me, accepting me and letting me enjoy playing football for you guys. I’m grateful for the opportunities, the experience, the people I’ve met and the memories I’ll take with me.
"I’ve really enjoyed the last three years and I’ve always felt the love and support from you guys. I wish the clubs, the lads, the fans and everyone involved all the very best for the future
"Thank you for everything and hopefully our paths cross again.”
Posh travel to Huddersfield on October 20 and host them on January 19.
