Coutts Close To Exit Again

As Paul Coutts continued to train in a gym in Rossendale he came ever closer to leaving Preston for pastures new.

Peterborough had recently met Preston's asking price of £400,000 but failed to agree personal terms with the midfielder whilst Hull were also rumoured to be interested.

It now seems clear that Derby are leading the race to sign Coutts and it could now just be a case of the player having to agree terms before a move can be completed.
