Preston Confirm Moyes approach

Last updated : 13 March 2002 By Austin Rathe
Preston Chairman Derek Shaw said: "In my opinion, David Moyes is the best young manager in football at the moment and it is in our interests not to lose him.

David is training as normal with the players this morning but myself and Chief Executive Tony Scholes will be sitting down with David Moyes this afternoon to discuss the approach made by Everton."

Club Chief Exec Tony Scholes added: "In any event, we will not allow David to leave unless an adequate compensation package is agreed."
