Huddersfield Town will be hoping they can make a positive start to the new Championship season, which is set to get underway in August. 

The Terriers finished 20th in the Championship table, and will be breathing a huge sigh of relief, after a poor run of form in the second half of that campaign saw them drop down the second tier standings at an alarming rate.

Carlos Corberan will be hoping that he can add to his squad over the summer, as they look to challenge higher up the Championship next term.

There are a number of players that could be available to various Championship clubs ahead of the new season, and the Terriers could look to target some of them in the near future.

We take a look at TEN Premier League outcasts that Huddersfield Town should try and sign on loan this summer.

Find out which player is first up on the list, on the next page....

Keinan Davis is a forward that could soon be heading for the exit door, although it remains to be seen as to whether that'll be on a temporary or permanent basis.

Davis made 15 league appearances in total for Aston Villa in the 2020/21 season, although just one of those was a start for Dean Smith's side.

He's often been behind Ollie Watkins in the Villa starting XI, which is understandable given the former Brentford striker's impressive start to life at Villa Park.

AFC Bournemouth and Swansea City are just some of the clubs that were reportedly interested in signing Davis in the past, and he'd provide more than good enough competition for the likes of Fraizer Campbell and Josh Koroma for their starting spots in the Huddersfield Town team.

Matt Clarke might be fancying his chances of challenging for a spot in the Brighton and Hove Albion first-team next season, after catching the eye with some impressive showings for Derby County this term.

But the defender is likely to be well down the pecking order in Graham Potter's plans though, as the Brighton boss has better options available to him at this moment in time.

Ben White, Adam Webster and Lewis Dunk are just some of the names ahead of Clarke in the pecking order at the AMEX Stadium this summer, and it wouldn't come as too much of a surprise to see him loaned out once again.

Huddersfield struggled defensively in the 2020/21 season, with Carlos Corberan's side conceding 71 goals in total in last year's campaign, which was the most in the entire league.

Jimmy Dunne is the next defender on the list, with the Burnley centre-back struggling for consistent minutes with the Premier League side.

The 23-year-old was restricted to just three appearances in the top flight for Sean Dyche's side, and is seemingly well down the pecking order in Dyche's plans at this moment in time.

Dunne still has his best years ahead of him though, and he'll be hoping he can find regular minutes in senior football at the earliest of opportunities.

Huddersfield Town conceded the most goals in the Championship last season, and defensive reinforcements are certainly needed this summer for the Terriers.

Huddersfield Town's defence is probably the main area that needs strengthening this summer, and Wilmot could be another player that is considered ahead of the new league campaign.

The Watford central defender made 27 appearances for the Hornets last season, although just 14 of those were league starts for Xisco Munoz's side.

With them being promoted into the Premier League under Munoz's management, it seems unlikely that Wilmot will feature much in the top flight, as there are better options ahead of him in the pecking order at this moment in time.

So it wouldn't come as much of a surprise to see him loaned out this summer, and a move to Huddersfield could be ideal, as they'll be eager to add depth to their squad ahead of the new season.

Jack Clarke is the next promising young talent on the list, with the winger showing glimpses of his exciting potential whilst out on loan.

The winger had previously caught the eye with some strong performances in the Championship whilst with Leeds United, which saw him earn a move to Tottenham Hotspur.

He then was a bit-part player for QPR in his loan spell with the R's, but had his loan spell with Stoke City last season cut short due to injury.

At the age of 20, he has a point to prove in senior football, and that could play into Birmingham City's hands, as they look to add depth to their options in wide areas, which Clarke could certainly do.

This one is likely to be dependent on whether Leeds are to strengthen their squad in the summer transfer window.

Shackleton played his part in the Whites' promotion-winning campaign from the Championship in the 2019/20 season, but has gone on to struggle for consistent minutes in Marcelo Bielsa's side.

The midfielder only made three league starts for Leeds in their first season back in the Premier League, and at the age of 21, he could benefit from regular minutes elsewhere this season.

He's a player that will be eager to make a name for himself in senior football, and a short trip over to Huddersfield could be the ideal move for all parties involved if he can hit the ground running.

With Lewis O'Brien's future at Huddersfield Town remaining unclear at this moment in time, it could prove to be a smart move for the club to target a deal for his potential replacement ahead of the new season.

Everton midfielder Beni Baningime could be the ideal player to fill that void, with the 22-year-old likely to be looking for regular minutes elsewhere this summer.

Baningime spent part of the 2020/21 season on loan with Derby County, but only made two appearances for the Rams, as they narrowly avoided relegation into League One on the final day of the campaign.

Baningime has one year remaining on his contract with Everton, and will be hoping he can make a positive impact as he looks to fight for his future at Goodison Park.

Shane Long is up next, with the Southampton forward's short-term future potentially being away from the Saints.

The Irish forward has a considerable amount of experience under his belt over the years in the Championship, and has gone on to impress in the Premier League whilst with Southampton.

But he's likely to be down the pecking order in Ralph Hasenhüttl's plans at this moment in time, which could mean that he's heading for the exit door on a temporary basis.

Long spent the second half of the 2020/21 season on loan with AFC Bournemouth, as they narrowly missed out on promotion into the Premier League, after a defeat to Brentford in their play-off semi-final.

Patrick Roberts is another player that is likely to be looking for a loan move elsewhere, with the winger's future at Manchester City remaining unclear.

He spent the 2020/21 campaign on loan with both Middlesbrough and Derby County, and it wouldn't come as much of a surprise to see him returning to the second tier in the near future.

A move to Huddersfield Town could be the ideal move for him, as he's a player that has shown he can add something going forwards with his trickery on the ball.

Roberts made a name for himself whilst with Fulham earlier in his career, and will be keen to find regular game time this season, which isn't likely to come with Manchester City. He could be the ideal player to provide the service for the likes of Fraizer Campbell and Josh Koroma.

Jarrad Branthwaite is the last player on the list, with the Everton youngster likely to be finding first-team minutes with the Toffees tough to find anytime soon.

The former Carlisle United youngster spent the 2020/21 season on loan with Championship side Blackburn Rovers, and adjusted well to life at Ewood Park.

The central defender is still somewhat of a raw talent, and competition for the likes of Naby Sarr and Richard Keogh in the Huddersfield Town defence could be ideal for Carlos Corberan heading into the new season.

Even if he wasn't to be a regular starter for the Blues, he could be a good enough option to use on a rotational basis in and around the hectic fixture list in the Championship.
