Morgan joined Peterborough from MK Dons in 2006

Peterborough United defender Craig Morgan insists he is committed to seeing out his contract.

The 24-year-old came close to joining Notts County at the end of the loan window, but the move fell through.

He has started the last two matches for Posh and should keep his place for Saturday's trip to Coventry.

Morgan told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "I've got 18 months left on my contract and I'm settled in Peterborough and want to play Championship football."

He added: "I went to Notts County and was as good as gone at one point, but then I came back and I'll always give my all."

Morgan was a first choice started under Darren Ferguson, but fell out of favour following the arrival of Mark Cooper.

A move to Meadow Lane fell through at the last minute but injuries to key players have seen Morgan re-establish himself at London Road.

The Welsh international remained in the side at Ipswich on Tuesday, despite the return of Charlie Lee from injury.

Gabby Zakuani is touch and go ahead of Coventry and Morgan knows he will face a fight for his place once the injury situation starts to ease.

"The gaffer is there to make decisions and when everyone's fit he will have decisions to make," he said.

Cooper has no further injury concerns for Saturday, but George Boyd is one yellow card away from a suspension.
