Ben Whiteman is the new PNE captain
Preston North End captain Ben Whiteman says Alan Browne will be a ‘big miss’ at Deepdale. It is Whiteman who has taken the armband at Deepdale, following the news that Browne will be leaving Preston after 10 years. The Republic of Ireland international has not signed a new deal at the club and will move on after making 412 appearances. North End’s number four has spoken to club media for the first time as permanent captain, to give his verdict on Browne’s departure.
' And on taking the armband full time, Whiteman added: 'It's obviously going to be a little bit different. Doing it full time comes with different things in the background, but I am really looking forward to it. I was close with Al last season and Greg when he was here, sorting out little different bits. I have been tasked with leading the lads out, I'm really looking forward to it.
