Walsall defender Vincent Harper has joined fellow Sky Bet League Two side Exeter City on a season-long loan.25-year-old Harper joined the Saddlers on a permanent deal from the Grecians back in June last year and has made thirty-seven first-team appearances in all competitions during his time in the Black Country.
Before moving to WS1, Vincent, who played for the England C side before switching allegiance to Kenya, made a total of sixty-five first-team appearances for the
Grecians and contributed three goals and three assists during his
time at St James Park.
Born in Nairobi, he
began his career at Bristol City and made his first steps in senior
football with loan spells at Gloucester City, Weston-super-Mare and Bath
City.
He left Ashton Gate at the end of the
2020-21 season and moved to Chippenham Town, but after just under a month
there, he was approached by National League side Eastleigh.
He
spent two seasons with the Spitfires, where he excelled. Harper netted
four times during the 2022-23 season, and his impressive performances
caught the eye of Exeter, who signed him for an undisclosed compensation
fee.
