Williams has not featured since hobbling off during the Saddlers' 1-0 defeat against AFC Wimbledon in the League Two play-off final at Wembley Stadium in May. 

"It's one of those injuries where you think, he looks alright actually and let's get out there and move things on," boss Sadler said. 

"But he can't, that's just not the nature of the injury. It's very much a case of if you do too much too soon then you relapse. 

"That's when you get into trouble and the last thing any of us want is for Harry to spend anymore time out than he needs to.
