Spurs youngster may be just the ticket for PNE

Preston North End manager Paul Heckingbottom wants to add a 'different type of goalscorer' in the rest of the transfer window.

The Lilywhites completed a loan swoop for AFC Bournemouth's Daniel Jebbison in June, and moved swiftly to bring in Michael Smith on a free transfer following his exit from Sheffield Wednesday.

But, with Will Keane's future up in the air at Deepdale, Heckingbottom has been open about wanting another centre-forward. The challenge of looking for a permanent striker has been discussed by PNE CEO Peter Ridsdale.

Which, raises the question as to whether North End could take the loan route once again - having had success with the captures of Tom Cannon and Cameron Archer in previous Championship seasons.
