Jack Marriott scored 33 goals in all competitions in the 2017-28 season after moving to Posh from Luton Town, 27 of them in League One. He moved to Derby County for £4 million at the end of that season.
Marriott returned to Posh on a free transfer in June 2021, but he couldn’t dislodge Jonson Clarke-Harris from the starting line-up and after 16 more goals in 58 (29 as a sub) appearances he was sold to Fleetwood Town in January 2023.
From there he moved to Wrexham before joining Reading last summer. Marriott scored for Wrexham at London Road last season and he’s been in hot form for Reading, scoring eight goals in 13 appearances in an injury interrupted season.
Here are some other players to have represented both Posh and Reading….
