Wolves could sell Mendez-Laing

Wolves' reserve winger Nathaniel Mendez-Laing could join Peterborough in a permanent move for £50,000, rising to £100,000.

Posh are expected to have money to spend if they sell much-wanted striker Craig Mackail-Smith, who is attracting interest from a host of clubs, having already sold Aaron McLean to Hull in January.

And keeping Mendez-Laing, who spent the last campaign on loan from Wolves, at London Road is high on the list of priorities for their return to the Championship.

The 19-year-old made 40 appearances for Posh last term, 28 from the bench, in Posh's League One promotion season.

Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony said: "We're in talks with Wolves about signing Mendez-Laing permanently and worst case scenario on loan."
