Key Events

  • Summer transfer window shuts at 11pm on Tuesday, August 31
  • Posh are seeking a defensive midfielder and possibly a striker
  • Posh players are expected to leave on loan

London Road outgoings?

If Posh get the midfielder they are after we can expect Ethan Hamilton to leave Posh, especially as Jack Taylor is fit again.

Posh would have Taylor, summer signings Jorge Grant and Oliver Norburn, and the newcomer for central midfield positions.

Young Academy graduate midfielder Kyle Barker might also leave on loan. He skippered Posh Under 23s in their 3-1 league defeat at Cardiff City on Sunday.
