Peterborough United sign Swansea City midfielder on loan

Peterborough United have signed Adam King on loan from Swansea City for the season as confirmed by the club website.

The Posh have been very busy in this transfer window as they look to rebuild their squad so they can challenge for promotion this season. And they have now brought in their tenth signing of the season after King signed on the dotted line for them. This is a lot of new names for fans to learn but is sure to be exciting as they hope this will mean a change of fortunes going into this season.

The tenth man to come through is King, a highly rated 22-year-old midfielder currently contracted to Swansea. He came to the Welsh club for a big fee after starting to break through at Hearts but has only made a few appearances in the cup for them. Most of his first team experience has come from loan spells at Crewe Alexandra, Southend United and Mansfield Town.

Following the confirmation of this signing, Peterborough head coach Steve Evans said: “He is a young man that I worked with briefly at Mansfield Town, I took him on-loan to the club. Everyone who takes the opportunity to look at the stats will see that when Adam played, Mansfield won, we certainly didn’t lose.

“He came down to Swansea for a seven-figure fee from Hearts where he made his debut as a 16-year-old. He is a magnificent talent, very highly thought of at Swansea and I would like to thank and acknowledge Huw Jenkins at Swansea for his support in loaning Adam to the Posh and for loaning him to Mansfield last season.

“The kid is very comfortable in central midfield as he demonstrated at Mansfield but equally I have seen him play at right back where it has to be said, he is more than comfortable. He is an outstanding addition to a talented squad being assembled.”
