West Brom manager opens up on Preston North End target, Huddersfield Town new boy heads out on loan

Preston North End manager Ryan Lowe has already opened up on what he sees happening over the summer transfer window.

Goalkeepers Freddie Woodman and David Cornell have already arrived and Lowe swooped to sign free transfer duo Ben Woodburn and Robbie Brady - but more new faces are expected by the time the new Championship season gets underway.

Speaking earlier this month, he said: "We're still further down the line with other things - players who are out of contract, players who are in contract trying to agree settlement agreements, loan fees, there's loads of things which go on in terms of transfers.

"But we've got to make sure it's the right ones. We cannot just pick a player because he's been a good player - it's the character, the references we get, the personality. Everything has to fit the bill to become a Preston North End player."

With talks ongoing over new additions, one rival manager has given his thoughts on Lowe’s interest in bringing one former favourite back to Deepdale in recent days.
