Leahy Linked
The Saddlers have been named among a small group of clubs keen to take a closer look at Bristol Rovers left-back Luke Leahy with a view to building their squad for the 2020/21 campaign.

Leahy is no stranger to Walsall fans having spent two seasons plying his trade at Fortress Bescot, where he would make over one-hundred first-team appearances before joining the Pirates on a free transfer last summer.

Listed alongside AFC Wimbledon and Tranmere Rovers, manager Darrell Clarke seems unlikely to be looking at the Coventry-based defender as he released him, and a whole host of others, shortly after arriving in WS1.

Praise for Andy Butler

As we reported last week, Butler, who is among a plethora of players set to be released at the end of the month, took time out of his day to chat to some of the club's prospects about his career and life outside of the game.
