Whilst Simon Grayson has been on his charity bike ride to Amsterdam Preston have been linked with a move for Harrop. He is a young midfielder at United who has been offered a deal to stay but chances of playing appear to be limited.
Grayson has a 50/50 hit rate with young United midfielders. Ben Pearson has been a big hit wilst Liam Grimshaw has faded significantly into the background.
Harrop may add a more attacking threat from midfield if a deal is done to bring the youngster to Preston.
