Trio of Port Vale players set to be loaned out?
Young professionals Lucas Green-Birch, Joe Birks and January signing Daniel Trickett-Smith are set to be moved out on loan by Port Vale.
Gren-Birch (above) made the first-team squad last season while Trickett-Smith was once signed by Liverpool so the trio clearly have potential.
However, coach Dave Kevan says manager John Askey doesn’t see the three players in his first-team plans and wants them to be involved in regular first-team football.
Kevan told the Sentinel: “I think it is important they do get games. It is soul destroying training all week and working hard and then they have nothing on the Saturday to put that into practice.
“Danny’s role within the coaching staff is to keep a close eye on those young lads who are out on loan so we know exactly where they are at and what they are doing.”
