The usually reliable journalist Pete O’Rourke says that Port Vale are one of three clubs seeking a loan deal for an Everton youngster.
A reminder on our Port Vale rumours features. These stories have been reported elsewhere on the web and are not started by OVF nor necessarily believed by us. We have published themselves because we think they are of interest but readers should remember that the vast majority of rumours never come to fruition – so treat these claims with caution!
According to O’Rourke, Vale, Doncaster Rovers and Chesterfield are all interested in a loan deal for Aled Thomas, a 19 year-old defender who has made 52 appearances for Everton’s U21 side. A left-sided centre-half, Thomas has been with the Toffees since the age of seven. The teenager has a professional contract lasting until 2027.
The Valiants appear to have a decent connection with Everton having taken defender Eli Campbell and striker Martin Sherif on loan in the last transfer window. However, according to O’Rourke, Chesterfield are favourites to land the youngster.
