MacAnthony, who has returned to the UK from his Florida base for an eight-week stay to attend to club business, had planned to visit New York and Boston with the club this summer until the Covid-19 pandemic struck. They will revisit the idea in the future.

Posh will now spend time in the middle of August at the England squad’s training base at St George’s Park where they will take on Stoke City Under 23s and Derby County in friendlies on successive days.
