Walsall have confirmed that defender Daniel Cox has returned to parent club Derby County after being recalled by the Rams.

19-year-old Cox joined the Saddlers on a season-long loan in the summer, but has managed just seven appearances in all competitions, including regular appearances in this year's Vertu Trophy campaign.

We would like to join the club in expressing our thanks to Daniel for his efforts during his stay in the Black Country.
