Peterborough United have snapped up Wycombe Wanderers full-back Russell Martin on a three-year contract.
The 22-year-old moves to London Road as he is out of contract with the Chairboys, although Wycombe are entitled to compensation.
Posh boss Darren Ferguson told the club's official website: "It is a really good signing for the club and I am delighted to have him on board.
"As soon as I knew he was available we were able to complete the deal very quickly.
"The lad has a great attitude, he wanted to come to us despite having two Championship clubs in for him and that is because he knows what direction the club are going in."
Martin himself added: "I was very happy at Wycombe and enjoyed my time immensely, but I wanted to play at a higher level and further my career and I believe I can do that here."
