Preston North End have called a 4pm press conference to name their new manager.
The First Division club have been under the guidance of caretaker Kelham O’Hanlon since last month when David Moyes left to take over the Everton hotseat.
The Lilywhites’ Board announced last week there were five names on the managerial shortlist, including O’Hanlon.
Former Scotland coach Craig Brown is favourite to take over, with former Newcastle and Blackburn manager Kenny Dalglish and former Everton and Manchester City boss Joe Royle also rumoured to be on the shortlist.
