Oxford United winger Joel Cooper has joined Port Vale on loan until the end of the season.
The 25-year-old has found minutes hard to come by since joining the U’s from Linfield in 2020, spending the second half of last season back at his former club on loan. However, as Karl Robinson said, a loan at Vale Park works for all concerned:
“Joel needs to be playing games, Port Vale are a good club where we know he will be looked after and hopefully he gets to help them push on from their league position in the second half of the season.”
Joel is likely to be part of the Port Vale squad to play Scunthorpe United at home on Saturday.
