SHAUN Donnellan has joined midland neighbours Walsall on loan until Wednesday, January 3, 2018.

The 20-year-old defender, who spent time away from The Hawthorns with Vanarama National League outfit Dagenham and Redbridge during the 2016/17 campaign, links up with the Saddlers in time for their League One clash against Oldham Athletic at the Banks’s Stadium on Saturday.

The move comes less than three weeks after the youngster scored the opening goal for Albion in their 2-1 win at Walsall in pre-season.

Meanwhile, fellow academy graduate Ethan Ross has signed for Redditch United of the Evo-Stik Southern League on loan until Thursday, May 31, 2018.

The goalkeeper gained experience at Worcester City last season.

We would like to wish both Shaun and Ethan all the best during their time away from the Club.
