Reach featured yesterday for Preston after Preston did a bit of transfer movement unbeknown to most some time ago. The initial loan deal was set to end at the end of December but it was set out that during one of the international breaks the initial loan deal was terminated and renogotiated to allow him to stay for yesterday's game.
Preston were then able to negotiate with Middlesborough who have agreed to let the wonger stay at Deepdale for the remainder of the season. He has been much needed with Preston restricted in terms of wide players and should feature prominently.
