Henderson, who was included in the Republic of Ireland squad to face Bulgaria on Saturday, impressed in a loan spell at Grimsby last season after two years on the sidelines with a back injury. And Irvine has now urged the 25-year-old to challenge Andy Lonergan to become the Lilywhites' number one. The Preston boss told the Irish Herald: "I've had a chat to him and said that pre-season will be massive for him. "We don't anticipate any problems for him in regards to his injury but its going to be a massive one in terms of competing for the number one position."
