Preston North End on deadline day - all the news as it happens

North End have been strongly linked with Ali McCann who is set to sign for the club, but we’re awaiting on confirmation from the Lilywhites.

If North End fail to bring in another player there will be pressure on the club from the fanbase, the fans want to see at least one brought in and if that isn’t the case they may well let their feelings known.

We’ve not yet been told to stand down as PNE continue to work towards getting a player in before the deadline but they don’t have long to make something happen.

It’s not a transfer, but it is one outgoing. Daniel Johnson has been called up for Jamaica’s international World Cup qualifier clash with Panama.

PNE are certainly in the market for a forward, they want to add goals to their squad.

But where else could they add? They now are slightly down on numbers in the middle fo the midfield following Tom Bayliss’ departure, but is that enough to warrant adding another player to the squad?

Depth in defence looks good enough - with four goalkeepers at the club - so it might just be that there are one or two to finish off their window.
