Deadline day signing Bradley Ihionvien has joined the Peterborough United injury list.

A calf strain kept the striker out of Saturday’s matchday squad and he will not be involved in the Tuesday night League One fixture at Leyton Orient.

Posh will also be without Chris Conn-Clarke who suffered a collar bone injury in the weekend 3-2 win over Bristol Rovers. It's unlikely Ricky-Jade Jones will be involved in East London either after picking up an ankle injury against Rovers.

After the win over Rovers, Ferguson told the Posh Plus service: “Bradley has been feeling his calf. It’s something he picked up on his debut and he’s only been training at 50% so we had to take him out to make sure we can get him right quickly. It won’t be a long absence, maybe one or two weeks.

"Chris will be out for a while as he will need an operation and we will assess Ricky on Monday morning. It doesn’t look too bad, but I would say he is a doubt for Tuesday.”

Malik Mothersille will be a certain starter for Posh at Orient after his goal-scoring substitute appearance against Rovers and there could be recall to the squad for winger Cian Hayes.
