Section name change after migration

support
1

I have just imported a blog from another platform and unfortunately it has renamed the urls from www.example.com/post/article-name/ to www.example.com/posts/article-name/

I want to keep the existing backlinks pointing to /post/article-name/ but have the content redirect to /posts/article-name/

I thought this could be achieved by using something like

[permalinks]
  [permalinks.page]
    posts = '/post/:slug/'
  [permalinks.section]
    posts = '/post/'

but seems I have misunderstood how this works? Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
