Gibson, who spent most of his time with Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan last season, is unlikely to get a place in the first team squad as he is facing a strong challenge with other United midfielders.

Now younger Ferguson hopes to have his new player in place for Peterborough’s League One game with Northampton Town next weekend.

“However, I am looking to bring players in that can play straight away and when the loan window re-opens, we will see if we can sort something out.”

We hope Darron improves his game with Peterborough.
