Ryan Ledson on Hibs transfer radar as Black Knights flag up Preston star as summer target
The midfielder is set to become a free agent at the end of June and has plenty suitors Euro-bound Hibs are amongst a number of clubs who are interested in Ryan Ledson. The midfielder is set to leave Preston North End this summer. The 27-year-old has been flagged by the Black Knights, who own a stake in the Easter Road club. Ledson has interest from his former club, Oxford United, Bolton, Huddersfield and Plymouth. The former Everton youngster is currently weighing up his next move. Hibs have declared an interest and hope the lure of playing in European football next season could also help their cause. Ledson has spent the last seven years at Preston and will exit Deepdale when his contract expires next month. Hibs sealed third spot against St Mirren on Wednesday night and it could guarantee European group stage football, providing Aberdeen don't win the Scottish Cup. Sporting director Malky Mackay is already looking to add to their squad for next season. Eupen winger Regan Charles-Cook, Legia Warsaw frontman Migouel Alfarela and Hartberg keeper Raphael Sallinger are all amongst their summer options. Walsall defender Oisin McEntee is another they have looked into.
