Preston North End have signed free agent Jamal Lewis, a Northern Ireland international fullback.
Lewis was released by Newcastle United last summer and has been a free agent since then.
"We've been struck by a few injuries which has made the squad look a bit thin, so we felt we needed more cover in the short term and I'm really happy we've been able to bring in someone of Jamal's calibre,"
"He brings experience of playing at the highest level, he's earned promotion out of this division, and he's been playing international football since 2018. Most importantly, he's shown us he's really excited by the opportunity and he's ready to give everything while he's with us."
Lewis said:
"I spoke to the manager. Obviously he knows of me and my running power, what I can give to any team that I play for."
