Goalkeepers to leave as Peterborough United publish their retained list
Peterborough United goalkeeper Jed Steer has been released from the final year of his contract at his own request.
And Posh have also placed his understudy Nicholas Bilokapic on the transfer list along with strikers Bradley Ihionvien and Jacob Wakeling, and left-back Jack Sparkes.
Posh boss Darren Ferguson recently described Ihionvien as 'incompatible’ with the club, while Sparkes finished the season on loan at Chesterfield and Wakeling barely played during a loan spell with Gillingham.
Bilokapic has failed to hold down a regular starting place in two seasons at Posh.
Forward players David Ajiboye and Kabongo Tshimanga have been released at the end of their contracts. They finished the season on loan at Newport County and Swindon Town respectively.
Under 21 players Tyler Young, Ma’Kel Campbell, Justin Osagie, Jenson Sumnall and Aaron Powell have also been released along with Under 18s Ignas Sakalas, Tom Unwin, George Holley, Max Beech and Luke Gilbert.
Under 18 regulars Noah Freeman, Lucca Mendonca, Joe Davies, Andre Changunda and Fabian Claxton have all been offered Under 21 contracts
Posh have retained 22 senior players despite a disappointing 2024-25 season. They are all contracted for at least one more season.
Kwame Poku, Ricky-Jade Jones and Hector Kyprianou will all leave the club by choice.
It had been thought some of the fringe players used in a disappointing finish to the League One season would be under threat, but they have all been retained.
