Posh sell 13 year-old goalkeeper to Aston Villa
Peterborough United have sold their highly-rated 13 year-old goalkeeper Sam Proctor to Premier League Aston Villa.
It’s understood Posh have received the maximum permitted £100k for Proctor. This will rise to £150k if Proctor signs a professional deal at Villa Park.
Posh would have received a bigger fee if they had been confirmed as an Academy 2 centre. That should happen in 2021.
Proctor, who hails from Boston, has been at the Posh Academy since he was eight. He was originally an outfield player.
He was selected to attend an England Under 15 training camp at St George’s Park between December 19/21.
