Young Walsall midfielder Maziar Kouhyar, who recently penned his first professional contract with the club, has spoken to club journalist Daniel Briggs following Saturday afternoon's Sky Bet League 1 defeat to Wigan Athletic, and discussed how it felt to be named among the first-team squad for the very first time.

Speaking via Saddlers.co.uk, Maz said; “It was a good experience. At the start I was really nervous but all the players were welcoming and said congratulations to me for getting my pro deal. There were some funny characters in there.

“I was really surprised when I got the call on Saturday morning to come in to be on the bench. The day before, we had a youth team game as well so I was just shocked. Playing first-team football has been my dream since I was young. I’ve seen what it’s like now and I want to be involved more.

“This week, Jordon Sangha and I are going to start training with the first team and hopefully I can show the gaffer what I can do to get on the bench some more times and eventually play as well.”
