Port Vale Rumour Mill – Port Vale make ‘final’ Cole Stockton bid
Media reports suggest that Port Vale have made a final attempt to land Morecambe striker Cole Stockton ahead of the transfer window closing.
Stockton made 44 League One appearances and scored 23 goals last season. The Valiants are in the market to add another striker to their squad.
According to Nixon:
Port Vale have now tabled a bid of £150,000 for the striker as they make an effort to snap him up towards the end of the window.
It remains to be seen what Morecambe’s response to their offer is and if Port Vale get their man this window.
Other than Port Vale, Fleetwood Town and Shrewsbury Town were also interested in him, but have now dropped out of the race.
