It was widely reported last week that Preston were ahead of a host of clubs to sign the young forward. Hartlepool needed to see in a bid to stave off impending administration.

A deal was done on Friday although Simpson did not make the field in Saturday's game at Millwall. He is a young striker who fits into the Preston ethos of up and coming players to develop.
