Port Vale are pleased to announce the signing of midfielder Sam Kelly.

The 21-year-old put pen to paper on a two-year deal, with an option for a further twelve months, on Monday afternoon.

Having come through the ranks at Premier League side Norwich City, Kelly moved to Everton in 2012 and spent over a year at Goodison Park.

The winger is a predominantly left-sided player and manager Rob Page is delighted to have secured his signature.

He told port-vale.co.uk: “I’m very pleased to welcome Sam to Port Vale Football Club. I’m sure he will be a valuable player for us over the next few years.”
