Whaley eyes Oakwell stay

On-loan Preston winger Simon Whaley admits he would be interested in a permanent move to Barnsley.

The 23-year-old, who joined on a month-long loan on 7th November, has been limited to just two appearances for the Tykes due to a foot infection.

But Whaley found the net in Monday's 3-2 victory over Burnley and he is now considering his future.

He told the club's official website: "Who knows what will happen at the end of the loan and I could end up here.

"It is a huge incentive to do well because I am playing for my future and the rest of my career."
