Port Vale sign Stoke winger McCarron - and strikers Dennis Politic & Dan Butterworth also on loan
- Published
Dennis Politic scored five times in 15 games in his first spell with Port Vale last season
Port Vale have made three deadline day loan signings - Stoke City winger Liam McCarron and strikers Dennis Politic from Italian Serie A side Cremonese and Dan Butterworth from Blackburn Rovers.
Scot McCarron, 21, Butterworth, 22, and Politic, also 22, have all signed on season-long loan deals.
McCarron was signed by previous Stoke boss Michael O'Neill in June, but is yet to make a first team appearance.
Fellow Scot Alex Neil took over as the Potters' new manager on Sunday.
Former Salford and Bolton man Politic first joined Vale last August, scoring five times in the first half of the season before moving to Cremonese in January.
Vale have now signed three new strikers inside a week, after recruiting teenage West Ham striker Mipo Odubeko, also on a season-long loan.
Vale are 19th in League One, having so far won two of their first six games back at third-tier level. Their next game is at home to Cheltenham on Saturday.
