Fuchs chases a World Cup Finals place in Qatar
Not all Posh players will be putting their feet up during the international break.
Skipper Oliver Norburn, teenage defender Ronnie Edwards and comabtive midfielder Jeando Fuchs will be away with their countries.
Norburn was part of Grenada’s squad taking on Gibraltar in an away friendly on Wednesday night when Edwards was also expected to be involved for England Under 19s in a European Championship qualification game against Ireland at Walsall FC.
Grenada also play in Andorra on March 28.
England Under 19s also play Armenia at Rotherham United on March 26 and Portugal at Chesterfield on March 29 as they seek to qualify for the Euros in Slovakia in the summer.
Edwards (18) has featured in 27 Championship matches for Posh this season.
Norburn qualifies to play for Grenada through his
grandfather and has previously appeared three times for the Spice Boys.
Fuchs is involved in the biggest games as he has been called up to the Cameroon squad to face Algeria in their
World Cup play-off ties.
The winner after two legs will qualify for the World Cup finals in Qatar later this year.
The matches takes place on March 25 in Cameroon and on March 29 in Algeria.
There was pride in the callups for chairman Darragh MacAnthony, but also mild disappointment.
“I was surprised RickyJade Jones wasn’t called up for an England squad, but I’m
delighted for the others,” MacAntony said. “I also felt Ronnie might have received an under 20 call-up. There can’t be another defender of his age to have played as many Championship matches.”
