Northampton Town have signed Peterborough United midfielder Kane Ferdinand on a month's loan.

The 21-year-old joined Posh from Southend in August 2012 for an initial £200,000 fee.

So far, his only goal for Peterborough in 16 starts and 17 substitute appearances was against Blackpool.

Posh manager Darren Ferguson told 91Èȱ¬ Radio Cambridgeshire: "It will benefit him that he gets at least a month, five or six games, at a competitive level."

Ferdinand, who can play in a variety of positions, joins Brentford's Stuart Dallas and Luke Norris on loan at the Cobblers, who are second from bottom in League Two.

Cobblers boss Aidy Boothroyd said: "I know the priority is to bring in another centre forward but if you can't get the one that you want and you have got to wait a little bit of time to get the one that you want then you have got to add goals in other ways.

"If we can bring another centre forward in next week then we will try and do that. Jacob Blyth is back training again now with Leicester and we just want to make sure that he is fully fit before doing anything."
