Can't wait to listen to Ali Gold talk about this move for 40 minutes.
think it's those fellas that sell jacket potatoes out of a van on social media
Looked them up. Apparently they went viral and were voted best spuds in the world or something when they just had a barrow in a Preston market.
Now they have a branch in Soho.
And almost certainly no longer taste any good.
I guess false alarm on the buy option thing?
EDIT: Nevermind.
He signed a new contract and joined with an option to buy?

Option to buy surprises me, I thought Devine looked like one who might make the squad at some point in the next year or two.
Just wait for the Ali Gold 6 hour video dropping imminently.
Squad number 21,
Preston North End are delighted to announce Alfie Devine has joined the club from Tottenham Hotspur on a season-long loan, with an option to buy included in the deal.
The 21-year-old, who scored six goals during a loan spell in Belgium last campaign with Westerlo, will go straight into contention to feature in North End’s season opener against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.
The England youth international can operate in a number of different midfield roles and will wear the No.21 shirt during his time at Deepdale.
Alfie said: “I’m buzzing. When this opportunity came about, I was excited when I first heard about it. I’m happy to be here and happy to get it done. I can’t wait to get going tomorrow.
“I like to make people excited. I like to get on the ball. I like to always be involved in it and get people off their seats.”
Manager Paul Heckingbottom said: “Alfie’s a talented player who can play in a number of positions. He can play as an attacking midfielder, he can play deep and he’s played box-to-box, so he’s got that flexibility which is great for us.
“I really liked his loan move in Belgium last year where he showed really good energy and appetite off the ball, which is what we demand. He showed his technique and quality in the final third to get goals and help assist others as well.”

Not really done much at Plymouth or Westerlo in the last 18 months. Did well at Port Vale in league one prior to that but i think the fact its Preston and we've given them a buy option tells its own story.
Yeah that's fair I admit I wasn't following his games at Plymouth or Westerlo I've just seen his sparse appearances for Spurs in friendlies etc and he always seemed like he wasn't far off the pace.
Yeah its a shame, i thought a few years back he had something but goes to show there are no sure things with youngsters. Some just dont get any better than when their 16/17. Worth remembering for the current crop.
Preston is not too far from where he grew up too so a good fit for him. Imagine they won't take up the buy-option but we'll work out a deal with them at the end of the season anyway.
no but his dad played professional rugby for St Helens
