Michael Brown is entering his 20th year as a professional footballer this season, but the Port Vale new boy is already planning ahead for life after playing.
Port Vale are the eighth club that Brown has played for a permanent basis in his career and it is likely that Brown will pass the 600 appearance mark during his time at Vale Park.
Brown first came to prominence at Manchester City, coming through their youth ranks to play in the Premier League before moving to Sheffield United – and it was his form at Bramall Lane which earned him a return to the Premier League with Tottenham.
