Struggling Posh must add goals to their ranks

Peterborough have started this years League One campaign in awful form. 1 point from a possible 18 leaves Darren Fergusons side rooted to the bottom of the league.

With 2 goals in 6 matches, it is no surprise they are plotting a late swoop for young goal machine Jimmy-Jay Morgan to improve their fortunes in front of goal.

Having been on-loan with League Two's Gillingham for the second half of last season, the 19-year old has gotten a taste of senior football and even bagged two goals for the the Gills during his spell with the club.

Thank you, Gills! I’ve loved being a part of this amazing club & am grateful to those that invested time in me - thank you for all the support throughout. Wishing you all the best. 💙 pic.twitter.com/O2t1KZRdYR
