We are delighted to confirm that Martin Sherif has joined the club from Everton, on a loan deal until the end of the season.
The 19-year-old striker is a Netherlands youth international and spent the first half of the season on loan at fellow Sky Bet League One side Rotherham United, scoring on his debut before being recalled at the end of December.
Sherif previously scored 21 goals in 48 appearances for Everton in the U18 Premier League and becomes the second Toffees loanee - after defender Elijah Campbell - to join Vale in the January transfer window.
The 6ft 4in forward will link up with his new team-mates at Vale Park next week.
Speaking about the deal, First-Team Manager Jon Brady said: "We’re really pleased to welcome Martin to the club. He’s a young, hungry forward with plenty of potential, who will offer us a real presence in the forward line during the second half of the season.
“As with Elijah, we’re looking forward to bringing Martin into the group and are grateful to Everton.”
We would like to extend a warm welcome to Martin and his family.
