The ex-PNE boss made Browne his captain in 2020
Ex-Preston North End manager Alex Neil believes it will be a ‘sad day’ if Alan Browne decides to leave the Lilywhites this summer. The captain’s contract expires next month and he is yet to put pen-to-paper on PNE’s offer. In January, Browne came off the bench at Millwall for his 400th club appearance - having signed as a teenager in 2014. He won Player of the Year last season, with four goals scored in his 41 league appearances for Preston.
The Alex Neil interview “Probably just pride, as much as anything else,” said Neil, when asked about Browne’s career at Preston. “I sent him a text the other day after his game - just telling him how proud I am of him, what he has done for the club and how proud he should be really. I think Alan Browne epitomises Preston North End. I think he is a no-nonsense, quiet, unassuming but gritty and hungry sort of animal - who wants to do as well as he possibly can. I made Alan captain.
