Aston Villa, who play Posh in the third round of the FA Cup on January 6, Sunderland, QPR, Birmingham City and Millwall have all been linked aith a 23-year-old forward who has scored 17 goals in 30 appearances in his first season at the ABAX Stadium.

Posh would expect to make a considerable profit on the £400,000 they reportedly paid Luton Town for Marriott in the summer, but a sale would seriously damage ambitions of a push for the League One play-offs.

Posh have yet to comment on the interest.
