Mat Sadler: Walsall’s final recruit ‘definite’
Boss Mat Sadler has confirmed Walsall will sign a central defender before next Friday’s transfer deadline.
The Saddlers have already made 10 additions this summer and the head coach is looking to complete his ranks with one more defender, a light area highlighted by the injury of key new recruit Priestley Farquharson.
“I’m still after something there, it has shown even more importance with Priestley being out,” Sadler said. “It’s a big area that has had knock-on effects for us, namely putting Oisin (McEntee) at the back instead of midfield. Harry (Williams) has come in and done well when he’s played, but of course he’s a little younger and is finding his feet.
“We will sign another centre-back, that is for definite, it’s just up to us to push the bottom and a couple of things to fall into place for it to be the right one.”
