Nathan Smith is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on April 3, 1996 in Madeley, Madeley, ****. Nathan James Smith (born 3 April 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for EFL League Two side Port Vale.
Speaking in August 2016, Port Vale teammate Tom Pope described Smith as “brave as a lion” and a player who trained hard. Six months later, Port Vale coach Gary Brabin said Smith needed to work on his ball-playing abilities and to be more vocal, whilst praising his dependability, pace, strength and passion.
Brown was sacked early in the 2017–18 season after Vale slipped in the League Two relegation zone, and his successor, Neil Aspin stated that Smith “can improve with some of his decision making”, but that he remained a “key player” who “has a lot of good attributes, but he can get better”. He started all 54 of the Vale’s matches that season, making it two consecutive seasons of appearing in every game, though admitted he could have played better and that the team’s finish of 20th in League Two was not good enough.
After suffering a dip in form at the start of the 2018–19 season, Smith was dropped for the home game with Crawley Town on 18 August, putting to an end his run of 110 consecutive appearances that he had made since his debut two years previously. Smith said he would take being dropped as a learning experience. He returned to the starting line-up and formed a solid partnership with Leon Legge, whilst Connell Rawlinson was moved to right-back. The three centre-backs then went on to form a back three in a 3–5–2 formation, which was instigated after a 6–2 home defeat to Lincoln City on 13 October, and kept four clean sheets by the end of the month. By March he reached 150 appearances for the club before the age of 23, the youngest player to reach this landmark since Billy Paynter in 2005. Having played 51 of the club’s 54 matches over the course of the campaign, he was named as Vale’s Young Player of the Year for the second time in three years.
He joined National League side Torquay United on an initial three-month loan deal in July 2015. He impressed for the “Gulls” and the loan was later extended to cover the whole of the 2015–16 season. He made a total of 44 appearances at Plainmoor and was voted the club’s Player of the Season and Young Player of the Season. Manager Kevin Nicholson described him as a “freak of nature”.

He scored his first goal in the Football League on 16 August, with his header proving to be the only goal of the game against Rochdale. His performances saw him nominated for the League One Player of the Month award for August. This led chairman Norman Smurthwaite to open negotiations for a new contract as he admitted Smith was “on a boy’s wage compared to the rest of the squad” and Smurthwaite anticipated offers for the player from Championship clubs in the January transfer window. Smith quickly agreed to a new contract to keep him at the club until June 2020. The Football League further recognized his performances by naming him as Young Player of the Month for August.
