Preston North End defender Andrija Vukcevic says they "have started the season really well" but the Lilywhites need to remain consistent to build momentum for the season.

Vukcevic joined Preston in the summer on a three-year deal following the expiration of his contract at Mexican club Juarez.

"When I heard about the option to come on a trial here, I didn't really think too much," Vukcevic told BBC Radio Lancashire.

"Although I had other offers I said, ' I really want to go there to prove myself'.

"It wasn't an easy decision, as you take a lot of risk, because you can get injured - but I decided to go and I didn't make a mistake."

Preston are fourth in the Championship, following a start to the season that has seen them lose just one of their opening nine league fixtures, in a 1-0 defeat to Portsmouth.

"We have started the season really well," Vukcevic added.

"It is just about how consistent we want to be, and we have had really great games to start the season, we just need to keep that momentum going.

"[The supporters] have been class since the first game. You notice on the pitch when you hear their voices, you just want to give your all."
