Walsall have completed the signing of Scottish striker Andrew Dallas. The 26-year-old becomes the first summer arrival under new head coach Lee Grant.

What happened?

Dallas joins Walsall after his release from Barnsley, where he scored once in five appearances. He impressed on loan at Southend United, scoring 17 goals in 41 appearances.

Why it matters for Walsall

The arrival of Dallas will bolster the Saddlers’ attacking ranks following the loss of Daniel Kanu, Jamille Matt, and Aaron Loupalo-Bi. Kanu finished as their leading scorer with 18 goals across all competitions last term.

What comes next?

Dallas will officially join Walsall on July 1, after his contract at Barnsley expires. He has also had loan spells with Kilmarnock and Oldham Athletic during his time at Barnsley.
