Liam Kinsella Pens New Walsall Contract

Walsall FC have confirmed that young midfielder Liam Kinsella has put pen-to-paper on a new two-year contract which will see him remain at Banks's Stadium until at least the summer of 2021.
Liam picked up last season's Young Player of the Season and Community Player of the Season as, despite being part of a team which was relegated to League Two, he enjoyed a superb campaign - gaining a host of new fans and suitors alike.

Colchester-born Kinsella, who also collected last season's Goal of the Season Award for his Cup-tie winning goal against Sunderland, was one of only two players to be offered a new deal by manager Darrell Clarke with fellow Saddler Nicky Devlin opting to reject fresh terms in favour of a switch to Livingston.

Kinsella, alongside George Dobson, Stuart Sinclair and Alfie Bates, will form a major part of the Saddlers' midfield as the club looks to stabilise following last season's dismal campaign, which sees the club playing outside of the third tier for the first time in over a decade.

The club has already added former Bristol Rovers duo Sinclair and James Clarke to the squad over recent weeks and are expected to add further options to the first-team ahead of the return to action in early August.

Following the news of Kins' new deal, Saddlers manager Darrell Clarke spoke to club journalists and offered his thoughts, speaking via the club's official website, Darrell said; "I’ve watched a lot of the games and he’s impressed me with his energy.

"He’s got plenty of games under his belt and we’ll be looking for him to step up to the plate even more so this season. He’s hungry and that’s what we want at the football club – hungry players that want to move the club forward."
