Motherwell agree 'deal in principle' with Peterborough for Mark O'Hara permanent switch

Motherwell is set to make Mark O'Hara's loan deal from Peterborough permanent after a "deal in principle" was agreed.

The midfielder had impressed for the Steelmen during the second half of the campaign before the lockdown and looks set to be snapped up by Stephen Robinson.

Posh director of football Barry Fry told Peterborough Today that there were a lot of different factors given the Covid-19 outbreak, but expects the deal to be signed.

He expects the English League One side to recoup the fee they paid when signing him from Dundee.

He said: “We have agreed a deal in principle with Motherwell for Mark’s transfer.

"It’s not a done deal yet because Scottish football is a bit confusing right now, but I expect it to happen.

Motherwell seem happy with Mark and he’s not likely to get a chance with us so it’s a good move for him.”
