PANTHERS BRING BACK JENKINS

PETERBOROUGH have confirmed they will retain Jordan Jenkins in the Rising Star berth for their Premiership line-up this season.

Jenkins joined the Panthers in late May last year and produced some encouraging displays in his debut top-flight campaign, especially during the latter stages.

He said: “In my first few meetings last season I thought I might have made the jump too early, but I persisted at it and I knew what I needed to do.

“It got to a point where I wanted that Premiership spot from day one in 2023, so I needed to show that I could do something.

“I tried something new, I brought back a different engine from Poland, and that seemed to work everywhere. It all added up and it gave me a real boost of confidence, and it was something I wanted when I joined Peterborough.

“I just can’t wait to get started, the team that’s being put together that I know about looks incredible, and I’m going to learn off every single one of them.”
