Harrogate Town promotion winning defender Connor Hall has joined Port Vale on a permanent deal, the club confirmed today.

Hall made more than 100 appearances for the club and scored against Notts County in the National League play-off final at Wembley in 2020.

The 28-year-old centre half also won players’ player of the year in the promotion season and played the full 90 minutes in the FA Trophy final victory over Concord Rangers the following year.

He has joined fellow League Two outfit Port Vale for an undisclosed fee.

Manager Simon Weaver said Hall played a “big part” in Town’s recent success.

He said:

“I want to wish Connor the very best of luck.

“He’s played a big part in our progress over the last few years and in particular his goal at Wembley in the play-off final will always be remembered with great fondness.”
