Brady signs new two-year deal at Preston North End

Ireland's Robbie Brady has signed a new two-year contract at Preston North End. Brady's new deal will run until the end of the 2024-25 season.

Brady has already made 36 appearances for the club since arriving from Bournemouth last year. The Dublin native has rotated with Manchester loanee Alvaro Fernandez in the Championship this year and will be aiming help Preston get to the Premier League next year.

"Robbie has been a top professional to work with on a daily basis and has had some fantastic performances," said manager Ryan Lowe. "The competition between him and Álvaro [Fernandez] for a place on that left-hand side was tremendous last season.

"We feel he can give us a bit more going forward in terms of adding some goals, and that'll be the aim for him this season."

Brady also added that he was 'delighted' to sign a new deal at Deepdale. "I've been around a few dressing rooms now and a few different clubs, and this one has that homely feel of a couple I've been at before," said the Ireland player on the club's website.

"Everyone's spot on – from the top to the bottom, it's just full of good people that believe in what we're doing, and we're excited about that.

"I enjoyed my time here last season, and I'm delighted that we could get a deal done and continue my stay. I've settled in well here. I think I'm easygoing, and I get on well with most people. I've taken a liking to the lads, and they've taken a liking to me.

"It's an incredible dressing room with some great people, and like I said, I'm excited now to get going again."
