Paul Merson has shown interest in the defender but rather have him in for a month on trial he suggested the player joined Tamworth for a month where Merson can keep close tabs on his progress. Walsall have first option on the player who will remain at The Lamb until the end of February Because the player is unattached he can sign for the club after the January transfer window closes.
The added advantage of him joining Tamworth is seeing him in first team action - something he would not get at Bescot at the moment. Last night the player played in Tamworths 3-1 win over Forest Green. He scored the opening goal in the much needed league win.
