Interest In McGeady Grows

Last updated : 19 April 2017 By @pnemad

McGeady has been the stand out player at Preston this season but is only on a season long loan from Everton. He has one year remaining on his contract at Everton but it appears he has no future on Merseyside which is mutual.

It is understood that Preston are in talks to come to some agreement over a permanent transfer which would end up with McGeady receiving a payment for his outstanding year left at Everton.

The Irish international is rumoured to be on around £40,000 a week at Everton with Preston only contributing around a quarter of his salary this season. North End have a wage cap and McGeady will have to fall in line but they are hoping to get around this by offering a large up front fee tied in with the transfer fee.

It is believed that Middlesbrough are also interested in signing McGeady as they watched him recently but it is more likely that the Irish international will want to remain at Preston.
