Ricardo Santos celebrates a Posh goal at Doncaster in 2016.

Centre-back Ricardo Santos is back in the Football League after swapping National League Barnet for League Two outfit Bolton, while local boy Carl Piergianni, another centre-back, has moved to Oldham from League Two rivals Salford.

Santos played 75 times for Posh, scoring once, after signing from Thurrock in 2014. He moved to Barnet in 2017.

And a third former Posh defender to move this week was Nat Knight-Percival who has joined Morecambe from Carlisle.

Former Posh skipper Jack Baldwin moved to League One rivals Bristol Rovers last week and another ex-Posh captain Alex Woodyard is believed to be of interest to AFC Wimbledon.
