Walsall's Sky Bet League One rivals Bury have this afternoon confirmed the signing of Celtic defender Eoghan O'Connell, who joins the club on a three-year contract.
News, released via BuryFC.co.uk, confirms; We are delighted to announce that defender Eoghan O'Connell is our latest summer signing. The Irish defender joins the Shakers on a 3-year deal after leaving Scottish Premiership champions Celtic.
The Saddlers had been keen to capture 21-year-old O'Connell following a successful loan spell last season which saw him make seventeen first-team appearances and score one goal as her added some much-needed strength to the backline.
