Fee agreed with Peterborough for Rio

And another incoming! Max Sanders, a midfield playmaker.

Fee agreed with Peterborough for Rio

So the delay will have been negotiating the compensation as we suspected.

And another incoming! Max Sanders, a midfield playmaker.

Signed a 2 year deal after just one year at Orient. Keeper soon? (Is Westwood still round the Heath if needed?)

Just need to know about CBR now.

"A high six-figure sum" for Rio. So the BBC quoted a Peterboro spokesperson.

Sanders is the second player the Alex have actually paid a fee for during this window. Obviously the club have known of potential income for Rio for a while.

It is pleasing to read that several offers for Rio were rejected before finally accepting a decent figure. Just wonder if that figure includes 'add-ons' or if they are extra.

I think you've probably hit the nail on the head there - maybe another too?

Peterborough were only willing to complete the deal once one of their outgoing transfers was completed and they had received the transfer fee apparently.

A bit of a blow losing Rio but not much of a surprise, but getting a decent fee for a player is a positive, we have lost far too many on free transfers.

Max Sanders looks a good signing he is a bit of a journeyman but that's 2 players we have paid a fee for, we needed another midfield player, but do we have a left back?, probably on the priority list now.
