BRIAN Barry-Murphy and Mark Wright have agreed new three-year deals at Preston.
The youngsters would have been out of contract this summer but have impressed manager David Moyes.
Midfielder Barry-Murphy broke into the first team squad this season, making his debut against Blackburn while Wright finished top scorer in North End's second string.
Meanwhile, Paul Morgan has been offered a one-year extension to his contract and is currently thinking it over.
The Irish defender made his first start for North End this season and has also featured on the bench.
But left back Dominic Ludden, who has been plagued by injuries, and Irish winger Stuart King have been released.
