Albion prospect Jayson Molumby has agreed another loan move into the Championship.

The Republic of Ireland international will complete the season with Preston North End.

Molumby is keen for playing time after remaining on the fringes of the Seagulls’ first team so far this term.

Millwall were understood to want to take him back on a permanent basis to The Den, where he shone on loan last term.

Albion technical director Dan Ashworth said: “Jayson enjoyed a really good season on loan in the Championship last year and this move gives him another opportunity to play regular senior football.”

Graham Potter used the 21-year-old in two early-season Carabao Cup ties.

Ironically, he missed the 2-0 win at Deepdale as he was saved for a league game at home to Manchester United.
