Walsall face pre-season derbies

Walsall have announced another high-profile home friendly against Wolves on Tuesday, 29 July.

The Saddlers also face West Bromwich Albion at the Banks's Stadium on Tuesday, 5 August and visit Port Vale on 2 August.

They will be the first ever opponents for Bloxwich United on Friday, 11 July, and have yet to confirm dates for a further four friendlies.

Meanwhile, midfielder Josh Craddock has signed his first professional contract.

The 17-year-old, who can also play in attack, scored 12 goals in 16 games in the youth team's title-winning season.

Wolverhampton-born Craddock made his first team debut in Walsall's final game of the season against Hartlepool.

He joins Richard Davies and Hassan Bacchus in signing professional deals at the Banks's Stadium this summer.

But Paul Hall, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Wrexham, has been released.
