New striker signing - Devante Rodney


Doha

Recommended Posts

The surprise for me is he is 6 foot 2. Looks smaller on the video clips. Askey has watched him a few times so it's not a random punt and he must be very confident to give a 3 year contract. Leave aside Salford and just looking at what he did at Stockport and Halifax over the last 18 months and you'd ordinarily be talking a big fee for a lad who is only turned 22 in May. Let's hope he achieves his potential.

Where have you seen that? He's around 5"10 or 5"11 but is quite stocky and well built, whilst having good pace!

That's what I thought too but wiki says he is 5'10", so the official Vale website has made a mistake:

"His impressive start to his career with the Pools earnt the 6’2” Rodney a move to Salford City in June 2018"

Paragraph 4 of the official press release. It also says it on his promotional video on youtube.

To be fair he could well be six two judging from that, though of course we have no idea how tall his friends are!

Let's hope we're able to have him stood next to Nathan Smith next season for a comparison.
