    "He's still 22, and there's still improvement to come but on the whole Preston would have loved to have kept him."

    Former Burnley midfielder Jack Cork has joined Scott Parker's first team coaching set-up ahead of their return to the Premier League.

    Cork made over 250 appearances for the Clarets during a five-year spell in the top flight and spent last season with the under-21s as a coach.

    "It's a really exciting moment for me to be honest," said Cork. "I'm still quite new to coaching.

    "We had a really good year last season with the under-21s. I really enjoyed my first season in coaching, working alongside the likes of Andy Farrell, Tony Philliskirk and Matt Walsh.

    "Then the manager rang me in the summer to say there would be some changes within the coaching set-up and asked if I would be interested in moving over and being around the first team.

    "It was an amazing opportunity I couldn't turn down."
