Last updated : 29 July 2011 By Covsupport News Service/AO

Former Coventry City loanee keeper Iain Turner has signed for Preston North End.

Turner, who played for City at Millwall and Watford before getting injured and being replaced by Michael Quirke last season, was also on loan at Preston last season and made seventeen appearances.

Reports say that he did have a chance to sign a new contract at Everton and that Turner has signed a one year deal with Preston.

Speaking to Preston North End's official club website, Preston Boss Phil Brown said: "Ian has shown tremendous loyalty to us, he walked away from a lucrative contract offer at Everton.

"He has ambitions and doesn't want to sit on the bench,"
