We’re delighted to announce the signing of James Plant who joins on loan from Port Vale until January.

Plant is a versatile player capable of playing as a forward, central midfielder, or wing-back. He made his senior debut for Port Vale in August 2022 and gained experience on loan at Nantwich Town and Salisbury, where he impressed with his performances.

He signed his first professional contract in April 2023 and scored his first EFL goal the same month. Plant continued to excel in the 2023/24 season, earning praise from his manager, but a shoulder injury sidelined him for 12 weeks. Despite being played out of position upon his return, he received further commendation for his adaptability and attitude.

See James Plant in action on Saturday at Huish Park as the Glovers host Aldershot Town.
