Port Vale set to lose key player for up to a month
Port Vale coach Dave Kevan has said that midfielder Manny Oyeleke could be ruled out of action for up to “four weeks”
Oyeleke was forced to leave the field early during Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Northampton Town.
Vale coach Dave Kevan has now confirmed that following tests, the midfielder is set to be missing for some time.
Kevan told the media: “It looks like three to four weeks possibly. We are hoping sooner, but we won’t push him. We will make sure we get him right and get him out there as soon as we can. But making sure that he is fully fit and ready to go.
“We can reshuffle it a little bit. Obviously Manny is a big player for us, everyone knows that, there is no getting away from it. But for the boys that fill in, it is their opportunity and the lads that have played tonight have put a good shift in for us.”
