Loan signings Kean Bryan and Tom Walker in line for Bury bows

Kean Bryan and Tom Walker could get their first run-outs for Bury in Saturday's Sky Bet League One home clash with Port Vale.

The pair joined the Shakers on loan on transfer deadline day, defender Bryan arriving from Manchester City and midfielder Walker from Bolton.

Boss David Flitcroft still has five players unavailable due to injury.

Kelvin Etuhu and Nathan Cameron both have knee problems, while Neil Danns (foot), Andrew Tutte (hamstring) and Chris Brown (ankle) are also sidelined.

Paulo Tavares is a fresh injury concern for Vale boss Bruno Ribeiro.

The midfielder was forced off with an injury early on in the league win against Scunthorpe and missed the midweek victory against Derby in the EFL Trophy. It remains to be seen whether he will be fit in time for Saturday.

Kiko made his return from an Achilles problem on Tuesday night and he will hope to be involved again.

Riberio could add goalkeeper Miguel Santos and winger Gezim Shalaj to his squad after signing the duo ahead of the transfer deadline.
