Preston boss Ryan Lowe is delighted with the chance to take Ben Woodburn on trial.
The winger is coming off contract at Liverpool this week.
“He'd obviously been playing at a higher level," Lowe told PNEFC.net.
“Obviously his contract's now ended at Liverpool. He was up with Hearts in Scotland last season and he's a fantastic talent.
“We're hoping we can get a tune out of him."
Despite playing at such a high level throughout his career, Lowe, who is a big Liverpool supporter himself, has told Woodburn that there are no guarantees he will be given a contract at Deepdale.
“He's going to be with us for a few weeks and it's over to Ben now to showcase what he's really about," he continued.
“Because with the likes of Ben who have probably had a little bit of a dip in form of late, we're coaches and managers that want to try and bring the best back out of young lads like him.
“He'll be with us for a little while. He's a fantastic kid, he's trained fantastically well today, a good footballer.
“But there's probably one or two more that'll probably come in with us over the pre-season training because it's good that we can have a look at them and they can get a look at us."
