Preston sign Kesler-Hayden from Villa on loan

Preston North End have made their third summer signing by bringing in wing-back Kaine Kesler-Hayden on a season-long loan from Aston Villa.

The 21-year-old will go straight into contention for Friday's opening game of the Championship season at home to Sheffield United.

“When I found out Preston wanted me to be here I just wanted to get here as quickly as possible ready for the game on Friday," he said.

“I had a chat with the gaffer (Unai Emery) at Villa and he thought the best thing for me to do was to get another season of minutes under my belt and a bit more experience.
