The 22-year-old signed a short-term contract with the Saddlers in August, but manager Dean Smith has opted not to extend it.

Clifford, who left Premier League giants Chelsea last summer, made 16 appearances during his time at the Banks's Stadium, but his last start came in the 2-1 defeat at Oldham on October 11.

Smith said: "He came in on a short-term contract to January and has not featured in the last month or so.

"He's probably not developed and progressed as much as we both would have liked."
