Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has shared his thoughts on the highly rated Posh striker Ricky-Jade Jones, who has been linked with a move to Liverpool.
The 17-year-old is widely regarded as one of the most promising talents emerging from the EFL, leading to the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United showing an interest in him.
And Posh chairman MacAnthony believes the striker has the ability to go to “the top” but claims he will stay with the League One outfit in January despite the interest in him.

MacAnthony is certainly lavishing high praise on Jade-Jones to suggest he could be one of the best players to have progressed through the club’s academy.
