Preston North End

Lewis Leigh signed his first professional deal for the club in August 2021, penning a contract to keep him at Deepdale until 2024.

Leigh, a second-year scholar, was involved in the first team from day one of pre-season training and quickly impressed head coach Frankie McAvoy.

The midfielder, who joined PNE at U14 level, started and scored in the first game of pre-season against Bamber Bridge, and then went on to feature against the likes of St Johnstone and Bolton Wanderers.
