Lee Tomlin has completed his loan move from Cardiff City to join League One Peterborough United for the rest of the season.

The 29-year-old made just 16 appearances for the Bluebirds since joining in July 2017 from Bristol City.

Tomlin has not featured for Neil Warnock this season and is the second player to leave within 24 hours after striker Gary Madine joined Sheffield United.

“I feel like a kid again, I have got a smile on my face and I cannot wait to get started,” said Tomlin, who spent part of last season on loan at Nottingham Forest.

“It feels like coming home. It is a club that I love and a club that I have wonderful memories of.

“It is not just a sentimental move for me though, I am here to help the club try and get promoted.

“We have wonderful facilities at the club now, it has come on a lot since I was here the first time so there has been a lot of investment and the players are quality players.

“It has taken a little while to get completed but that is all done now and I can concentrate on playing football. I am looking forward to the challenge.”

Tomlin previously played for The Posh from 2010 to 2014 and also played for Middlesbrough and Bournemouth.
