West Brom and Brentford are among clubs targeting Preston North End midfielder Ben Pearson.

The Daily Mail says the stylish 26-year-old Pearson, who started out at Manchester United, is out of contract in the summer.

Preston are reshuffling their squad with Pearson ready to leave this month.

Brentford want to bolster their midfield as they push once again for promotion to the Premier League.

Celtic are also watching Pearson's situation closely.
