Rotherham United manager Steve Evans is not expecting to lose former Preston North End striker Jordan Hugill this summer. Evans has returned to the Millers, following their relegation to League One. He left Stevenage towards the end of last season, to succeed Leam Richardson at the New York Stadium. And Evans has been busy already, agreeing deals for seven new signings - one of those being former Preston right back Joe Rafferty.
Evans said: “I read the reports and so I spoke to Jordan and he intimated to me that he wasn’t aware of anything and if he did he would let me know as a matter of professional respect. One thing I have learnt in the short time knowing Jordan is that he’s a real good lad and taking references from people like David Moyes, he’s a real honest kid. “Wayne Rooney was a superstar as a player and is still to prove himself as a manager.
