Championship transfer news: Preston North End’s rivals reportedly have two bids rejected by Swansea City, Cardiff City ‘racing’ Millwall for striker

Preston North End striker Joe Rodwell-Grant has joined Lancaster City on loan.

The 19-year-old frontman recently returned from a similar spell with Bamber Bridge who are in the same division as the Dolly Blues.

Rodwell-Grant came through PNE’s academy and has played twice for the first team, coming on as a substitute in August against Mansfield Town in the Carabao Cup and in the Championship clash against Swansea at Deepdale.

He will spend a month at Lancaster on a youth loan which still allows him to train at PNE and play in reserve games if there are no fixture clashes.

North End now have seven players out on loan - Jordan Storey (Sheffield Wednesday), Josh Harrop (Fleetwood), Adam O’Reilly(St Patrick’s Athletic), Jamie Thomas (FC Halifax), Lewis Coulton (Warrington Town), Jacob Holland-Wilkinson (Bamber Bridge) and now Rodwell-Grant.
