​DONE DEAL: Robbie Brady joins Preston from Bournemouth

Preston North End have secured Robbie Brady on a free transfer.

The Irishman won promotion to the Premier League with Bournemouth last term.

Brady has been on trial with Preston since the start of preseason.

Speaking to the club's website, the 30-year-old fullback said: "I'm delighted to get something done and I'm just excited and really looking forward to getting going and hitting the ground running.

"It's been excellent coming into a good group. The manager phoned me a couple of weeks ago and I've really enjoyed it since I've come in.

"The lads have all been more than welcoming. The people around the place are all friendly and it made me feel comfortable so I'm delighted to be here and I'm looking forward to a good season ahead."
