Goalkeeper Steer released by Peterborough

Jed Steer made a total of 50 appearances for Peterborough after joining them in January 2024

Peterborough United have cancelled the contract of goalkeeper Jed Steer at his request.

The former Aston Villa keeper had another 12 months left on the deal he signed last summer but wants to leave for "personal reasons".

He saved two penalties against Wrexham to help Posh reach this season's EFL Trophy final at Wembley, and kept a clean sheet when they beat Birmingham City in the final to make it back-to-back wins in the competition.

A new contract has been offered to defender Tayo Edun, who joined them in January after leaving Charlton Athletic and scored twice in 17 appearances.

But goalkeeper Nicholas Bilopkapic has been made available for transfer, along with former Colchester striker Bradley Ihinovien, full-back Jack Sparkes and striker Jacob Wakeling.

The club have confirmed that highly-rated winger Kwame Poku, forward Ricky-Jade Jones and midfielder Hector Kyprianou, who scored the second goal in the 2-0 win over Birmingham, will all leave the club when their contracts expire.

Posh will be entitled to tribunal compensation for Poku and Jones, who both came through their academy.

Meanwhile, winger David Ajiboye and striker Kabongo Tshimanga have both been released, having ended the season on loan at Newport County and Swindon Town.
