Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has suggested on Twitter that the club are not interested in signing Liam Bridcutt from Nottingham Forest in the summer transfer window.

According to The Sun on Sunday (print edition, page 60, June 16, 2019), Peterborough wants to sign Bridcutt from Forest this summer.

It has been reported by the British tabloid that the League One outfit need a leader and hope to land the 30-year-old former Leeds United defensive midfielder on a loan deal.

Peterborough chairman MacAnthony, though, has suggested on Twitter that the Posh are not looking to sign the Scotland international as he is unaffordable.
