Alan Browne (M Preston North End b.1995)

[seanfhear]

Has turned down a new contract at Preston which would make him their highest-paid player ever, and looks to be moving on after 10 years. Was named Player of the Year for a second time this year.

Interesting ~ ~ I suppose his next contract will be the biggest and most important to his long term future / earnings ~ ~ I suppose nobody could blame him for wanting to max-out on that, considering his age.

He has had an excellent career and helped preston up from.league 1. Hopefully gets that seria A move , big signing on fee and good money for 3 or 4 years contract

seems as though its not money but the manager is the reason hes leaving according to PNE fans. they are not happy at all

Time for him to move on anyway. I don't know whether he'll ever make the EPL but he deserves a shot at a Championship club where he'll have a fighting chance of promotion, which isn't really the case at Preston.

This is fair and correct. Nowhere near consistent enough for the premier League. Will have a good career seen out in the championship.

Thought he should have moved on three years ago instead of signing a new contract. Maybe he didn't have any decent offers at the time or out of loyalty stuck around.

Coventry City are keen to sign Browne, given Callum O'Hare's departure and the release of Liam Kelly. However soccer reporter Alan Nixon thinks Coventry and Sheffield Utd may yet fail to sign Browne, as PNE seem to be upping their offer in a bid to retain him. (www.coventrytelegraph.net)

Sheffield United probably his best bet out of those if he wants a crack at promotion in the next couple of years. They'll at least have the PL parachute money to rebuild and seem to have spent next to nothing in the Premier League.

[Olé Olé]

If he's staying in England it would be interesting to see if he can make a late dash to Premiership for a season via a promotion with someone like Sheff United.

[Colbert Report]

Wikipedia has him at 374 appearances for Preston since 2014. Surely he must be up there in terms of most appearances for a single club in England? He could have five years left him him playing for them.
