Albert Adomah acting as role model to Walsall youngster
Walsall defender Connor Barrett says Albert Adomah has served as a key role model during the early stages of his spell at Bescot.
Barrett, who joined from National League outfit AFC Fylde earlier in the summer, registered an assist for fellow summer signing Adomah in Walsall’s 4-0 win over Swindon Town last week.
Adomah was originally signed to challenge Barrett at right-wing-back but has thrived as a makeshift striker over the past three games.
And Barrett feels Adomah’s arrival has injected vital experience and quality into the squad.
Barrett said: “Albert has been great since he has come in. Not just with me but with everyone.
“He’s always wanting to help and has been perfect. I don’t think there’s many better to look up to because he’s a top professional.
“He’s played at a high level for such a long time and he’s always trying to pass on his experience which is great for me.”
