Antwoine Hackford is a Valiant

AH

We are delighted to announce the season-long loan signing of striker, Antwoine Hackford, from Championship side, Sheffield United subject to EFL and FA approval.

A product of the Blades’ youth system, Hackford joined United at the age of 9 and would go on to make his Premier League debut against Crystal Palace in January 2021 becoming their youngest-ever Premier League player at the age of 16 years and 288 days old.

Most recently, Hackford spent the second half of the 2023/24 season on loan at Sky Bet League One outfit, Burton Albion.

Speaking of Hackford’s loan deal, Port Vale Manager, Darren Moore, said:

“Antwoine is an exciting, tenacious forward who has the bravery to get on the ball and to drive at defenders and get supporters off their seats.

“He is another player who plays without fear and adds even further competition at the top end of the pitch. 

“I would like to thank Chris Wilder and the team at Sheffield United for their trust with Antwoine and we all look forward to working closely with him this coming season.”
