After joining a successful loan spell, Johnson joined the Saddlers on a permanent basis from Mansfield Town in the summer of 2023 and made a total of ninety-eight first-team appearances, scoring thirty goals.
After missing the opening few weeks through injury, last season saw Johnson struggle for regular football making thirty appearances, scoring eight goals as he appeared to fall out of favour with Head Coach Mat Sadler.
His statement reads: "To the Walsall fans, thank you for your support, you have been incredible with me throughout.
"I wish I could have contributed more had I been given a chance. The lads have been amazing and gave everything this season to get over the line, but it wasn't meant to be.
"It has been a really frustrating period of time. And I'm glad this chapter is now over, and I can look forward to playing football again next season."
