Defenders a 'priority' for Hutchings
Walsall manager Chris Hutchings is making defensive reinforcements a "priority" before the start of the season.
The Saddlers boss confirmed he wants to add to his backline after last night's 1-0 defeat to Wolves, despite centre-back Stephen Roberts continuing his recovery after eight months out.
Netan Sansara - Hutchings' only recognised left-back - limped out with an ankle injury at the Banks's Stadium, meaning trialist Jamie Vincent will play there in Saturday's home friendly with Albion.
With Vincent yet to be offered a deal, Hutchings is keen to snap up extra defenders.
He said: "We are looking, a left-back is a priority, as we've only got Netan, and possibly a centre-back. We're short in that department, but we'll see how things develop over the next couple of weeks.
"I'm pleased with the boys we've brought in – they've settled in very quickly."
The boss wants to bide his time before making a decision on Vincent and fellow trialist, winger Peter Till, who also featured last night.
He said: "I want to see how they go again."
