Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has suggested that he has no interest in signing Queens Park Rangers striker Conor Washington.

Washington moved to QPR in 2016, after a blistering run of form at Posh, which saw him score 15 goals in 16 appearances.

Since moving to Lfotus Road, Washington has never scored so prolifically again, with his form very patchy.

Although the Northern Ireland international has shown flashes of quality, he has not been able to hold down a place in Rangers’ starting line-up.

With Steve McClaren taking charge, there has been suggestions that Washington could leave QPR in the coming months.

But it seems that MacAnthony feels that if Washington does depart QPR this summer it will be to a fellow Championship side, rather than Posh.

If Washington does leave QPR, it seems highly unlikely that they will be able to recoup the £2.8 million fee they paid for him two years ago, according to the Daily Mail.

Peterborough are likely to be in the market for a striker in the summer, even if they don’t go after Washington, as Jack Marriott looks likely to leave.
