These could be the transfer stories that dominate at Preston North End in June

Preston North End are a team in upheaval this summer, with plenty of players heading out of the exit door meaning that plenty should also be arriving.

North End have released a double digit amount of players at the end of their contracts and have made even more available for transfer – and that means there will need to be incoming business too in order to fill in the gaps left by those on their way out of Deepdale.

It could be a busy June, July and August for the Championship club – and there will be a wealth of transfer stories that unravel at PNE over the summer window, of that there will be no doubt.

As for June though, here are the stories that could dominate at the club.

Andre Gray on his way in?

PNE will be on the hunt for a new striker this summer, with Cameron Archer having returned to his parent club of Aston Villa.

That leaves space for Preston to try and improve their frontline and with the goals in short supply in that strikeforce outside of Emil Riis, they will definitely need reinforcements.

Rather than looking for another younger option though, it appears that Ryan Lowe has his sights set on a deal for Andre Gray.

A deal won’t be easily done, with several other Championship outfits now keen to snap him up after news of his impending release.

PNE though could arguably offer him more first-team football than anywhere else and considering he bagged ten goals last season, his record will make Lowe want him even more.

They’ll want to get business done then before anyone else – and that could mean they spend the majority of June trying to strike up a deal so that they can add him to their ranks when his contract runs out.

Benji Siegrist on the radar?

Another area that Preston will certainly need to target this
