Walsall release Williams

Leroy Williams has been released by Walsall.

The young striker came to Edgar Street on loan in March last season, but was sent off in his first game for the Bulls at Farnborough for reacting to a defender.

Walsall site upthesaddlers have published this short article:

Teenage striker Leroy Williams has had his contract terminated "by mutual consent".

The player was given a professional contract last year as he burst (goal scoring) onto the scene at the start of last season. It became more and more obvious that he was losing his way, however, as his appearances in the first team squad grew fewer and fewer, as the rumours of his lack of match fitness and weight problems increased.

This news comes as little surprise, after he was left off the squad photo shoot this week.
