Sam Hart: Liverpool youngster joins Port Vale on a season-long loan

Hart was part of Liverpool's squad for the 4-0 pre-season friendly loss to Jurgen Klopp's old club Mainz

Port Vale have signed teenage defender Sam Hart on loan from Liverpool until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old left-back becomes the 15th signing to join Vale since the arrival of Bruno Ribeiro as manager of the League One club on 20 June.

He was a regular member of the Liverpool Under-21 side last season.

Vale's latest move comes following a solid start to the season, in which Ribeiro's men have lost once in four league games, conceding just one goal.
