Stevenage have signed defender Kgosi Ntlhe.

Ntlhe is a South African international and joins Boro on ‘undisclosed terms’. His contract with Peterborough came to an end this summer, but the Posh were entitled to a compensation fee for the 22-year-old.

He bolsters a defence that has conceded 12 goals in the last three games in all competitions and is Darren Sarll’s second signing of the transfer deadline day after striker Tyler Walker came in on loan from Nottingham Forest.

Ntlhe is yet to feature for the Posh this season and joins former Peterborough United players Andrew Fox, Charlie Lee and Tom Conlon at the Lamex.
