Marvin Johnson is a Valiant!

Marvin Johnson

We are delighted to announce the signing of experienced wing-back Marvin Johnson, who has joined the club on a short-term contract. 

The 34-year-old previously spent four years at Sheffield Wednesday, where he played under current Port Vale boss Darren Moore, achieving promotion to the Sky Bet Championship in 2023. 

Johnson – who can operate in various positions - has 167 Championship appearances to his name and was also part of the Sheffield United side promoted to the Premier League in 2018/19. 

He will now link up with his new team-mates ahead of our league clash against Wigan Athletic on Saturday 18th October.  

First-team manager, Darren Moore, said: “Marvin is a player I know well and we’re delighted to bring him into the group here at Vale Park. 

“He will offer plenty of quality and experience at both ends of the pitch, which I think will be invaluable to us throughout this important period, and we’re all looking forward to working with him.” 

Everyone at the club would like to extend a warm welcome to Marvin and his family.
