Preston North End have signed Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper Wayne Henderson for £150,000 and also snapped up Racing Genk defender Seyfo Soley.

Twenty-three-year-old Republic of Ireland international Henderson has signed a three-and-a-half year deal with the Lilywhites, while the deal could eventually cost Preston £200,000.

Henderson joined the Seagulls for £35,000 from Aston Villa a year ago, following a successful loan stint at the Withdean.

Defensive midfielder Soley moves to Deepdale on a short-term deal running until the end of the season, having turned down the offer of a new contract from his Belgian club.

The 26-year-old Gambia international joins North End for an undisclosed fee.
