Peterborough United star receives international call-up
Peterborough United midfielder Jack Taylor has been named in a Republic of Ireland under 21 training squad.
The midfielder, who signed from Barnet in January for an initial fee of £500,000 will join up with Jim Crawford’s 25-man squad in Northern Ireland for the four day camp between Monday August 31 and Thursday September 3.
The 22-year-old, who qualifies for Ireland through his father, already has four caps for Ireland’s under 21 side and if he impresses has the chance to add to that number in three crucial European qualifiers against Italy, Iceland and Luxembourg in October and November.
Recently, Posh co-owner Darragh MacAnthony revealed on his Hard Truth podcast that the club have turned down a £2 million bid for Taylor from an unnamed club.
Taylor said: “I’m delighted to receive another call-up.”
