Peterborough United recall youngster from prolific loan spell
Peterborough United have recalled striker Pemi Aderoju for a loan spell at Eastbourne Borough.
Aderoju (21) was in prolific form for the National League South side, scoring 20 goals in all competitions between August and December.
He has hit 15 goals in the league and leaves Eastbourne as the second highest goalscorer in the National League South with 15.
Aderoju has been a rare bright spark for Eastbourne this season, who sit in 22nd place, four points from safety.
Aderoju has made two substitute appearances for Posh since joining from Biggleswade Town, both coming in the 2023/24 season.
He spent last season on loan at Boston in the National League in the first half of the campaign before joining Farnborough in the National League South but his season was ended by injury shortly after joining the club.
The day before Posh exercised their option to recall Aderoju, Chairman Darragh MacAnthony tweeted: “Big well done to Pemi hitting 20 league/cup goals last night out on loan in his 5 month spell at Eastbourne.
"Excited to see how he develops under our Gaffer and his staff. Promising future.”
