Diagouraga's Transfer Fee

Peterborough's Director of Football Barry Fry has said that his club will have spent very close to £1M on three signings and one loan deal over the past few weeks.

Toumani Diagouraga's signing by Posh from Hereford United was their third signing coming after Stockport winger Tommy Rowe and Lincoln midfielder Lee Frecklington.

Press reports, all unconfirmed, suggested that Diagouraga and Rowe both cost £200,000and Frecklington cost £175,000, but according to the Peterborough Telegraph this morning 'those figures may prove to be an under-estimate'.

Posh are set to sign a Premier League defender on loan on July 1 ahead of their return to Championship. A fee will be required for the player.

However the implication from the story suggests that the fee for Diagouraga could be somewhat more than £200,000.

Meanwhile the Western Daily Press has the story about Bristol Rovers tracking Hereford's Matty Done.

They maintain Done is 'out of contract' and 'is likely to be interested in a return to League One football'.
