According to the Lancashire Evening Post, Preston are now open to the idea of letting Josh Harrop leave the club this summer.
It’s stated that North End have received interest in Harrop, and he can seemingly leave for the right price.
Only last week, we wrote that the signing of Izzy Brown could push Harrop out of Deepdale with another playmaker added.
It now seems that Preston are willing to offload Harrop, which is no surprise after a disappointing loan spell in League One at Ipswich Town.
Now 25, it just hasn’t really worked for Harrop at Preston. There have been flashes of quality and signs of why former Manchester United scout Lee Waddington called him ‘really special’.
Preston haven’t seen that talent come through often enough, and Harrop now looks set to move on despite only signing a new deal last summer.
There is League One interest in Harrop, but not from Ipswich after he failed to really make an impact there.
Simon Grayson is currently in charge at Fleetwood Town and was in charge when Preston signed Harrop, only to leave for Sunderland shortly afterwards.
A number of clubs are likely to be keen, with Harrop surely good enough to make an impact in League One if played consistently.
