James Plant has returned to Yeovil Town on loan from Port Vale until the end of the season.

The versatile left-sided player has already clocked up 10 league games for the Glovers including a couple of goals to his name against Barnet and a ‘he-absolutely-meant-it’ effort against Southend United.

He returned to his League Two parent club having picked up an injury in mid-December.

Speaking to the club’s social media, the 20-year-old said: “I’m buzzing to be back. It was frustrating to pick up a little injury, but I have got through the rehab, so I am ready to go and hopefully I can get straight back in to it.

I need to build on what I did here last time, I have obviously had a little bit of set back but that is football, so I just want to build on it and see where we can go this season.

“It is always nice when you see people you have not seen for a while, so it was good to catch up and then we were straight back to work.”

Plant is expected to be part of the Glovers’ squad which travels to Dagenham & Redbridge this weekend looking for their first week since mid-December. They were without a fixture last weekend due to their intended opponents, Boston United, commitments in the FA Trophy.

The ‘new’ arrival added: “The lads have had a little break (with no fixture last weekend) and we will have a full week’s training and hopefully go to Dagenham, get the three points and build from there.

The deal means, that, at time of writing, the Glovers have six loanees on the books (Ollie Wright, Sean McGurk, Ciaran McGuckin, Kofi Shaw and Kyrell Wilson) so one will have to miss out on a match day or return to their parent club going forward, as only five are allowed in a matchday squad.

Welcome back to Somerset, James!
