Peterborough United has announced the signing of Northern Irish forward Christopher Conn-Clarke from National League team Altrincham. The 22-year-old had an impressive season last year, scoring 22 goals in 47 appearances. He has signed a three-year contract with an option for an additional 12 months.
Conn-Clarke began his career with Glentoran before moving to Burnley and Fleetwood. He joined Altrincham last summer following a previous loan spell, and is now excited to be joining Peterborough United, citing the club’s track record of developing young players.
Manager Darren Ferguson is pleased with the new addition to his squad, noting Conn-Clarke’s potential to excel at the League One level. The team has made it to the play-offs for the past two seasons but fell short of promotion. With the addition of Conn-Clarke and another new signing, Abraham Odoh, Peterborough United aims to continue their pursuit of promotion in the upcoming season.
