Ben Garrity Signs Two-Year Contract Extension

Port Vale Football Club is delighted to announce that midfielder, Ben Garrity, has signed a new two-year contract extension with the Valiants that will run until the summer of 2025.

The energetic midfielder joined the Vale in the summer of 2021 and played a pivotal part in the club’s promotion back to League One, scoring 12 goals along the way, the most league goals scored by a Port Vale midfielder in almost 30 years, and was deservedly voted for by supporters as your 2021/22 Player of the Season.

Garrity continued to be a stalwart in the Port Vale side throughout the campaign that followed, playing in 37 games across all competitions throughout the 2022/23 season before an unfortunate injury brought his season to an early end.
