Walsall interested in striker

Last updated : 08 January 2007 By Andy Van Hagen
The Sunday Press say Walsall are considering a move for Torquay United striker Jamie Ward.

Ward, a former Aston Villa trainee, has put in a transfer request at Plainmoor.

Walsall are currently in a position where an additional striker is not a priority. Martin Butler and Hector Sam have seen competition for places dramatically increase with the signing of Par Cederqvist and on-loan Tommy Wright. We have recently loaned James Constable to Kidderminster and McDermott to Halesowen Town.  However Richard Money is known to be looking for long-term targets.
