Tom Bayliss has reportedly attracted interest on the loans and it is claimed that Preston North End is ready to let the midfielder go on loan this summer.
The 22-year-old is entering his third season at Deepdale, having returned in the summer of 2019 for a fresh said to be in the area from £ 1.5m to £ 1.8m.
He has played 18 times in all competitions, making 11 league appearances last season and scoring his first goal for the club on the final day at Nottingham Forest.
Bayliss had to be extremely patient for his first-team chance and had better insight in the last campaign, but Football Insider is now reporting that PNE is prepared to authorize a loan transfer.
LancsLive has been told that the player is unlikely to leave unless the clubs make real offers.
The ex-Coventry City man is on contract until the summer of 2023, but one would have expected him to be in and around the first team photo now.
Bayliss has been involved in every preseason game but has yet to really do his best and claim a starting spot.
And with the captain Alan Browne back from injury and Daniel Johnson is set to return from international service to the Gold Cup, it will be a challenge for Bayliss to take a look.
Ben Whiteman and 20/21 Player of the Year Ryan Ledson are apparently Frankie McAvoy’s premier pair in midfield, leaving room for an attacking midfielder in the 3-5-2 preferred system.
There’s also Brad Potts, who will support each other to play regularly again, while Josh Harrop, Adam O’Reilly and Jack Baxter are other options on the squad.
The summer signing of Izzy Brown, who is also said to have been a candidate to play the role of No.10, is missing for a significant period and experimenter Jamie Thomas would play in a similar position if signed.
A loan transfer for Bayliss, with interest in the Championship and League 1, would be more advantageous than him being on the bench and having limited playing time for another year.
When he left North End, he was a pretty big investment and the club need to see that justified as soon as possible.
