Newcastle United player seals permanent exit to EFL side

Walsall manager Michael Flynn continues to add to his side with his second summer signing proving to be Oisin McEntee.

The Saddlers boss has already moved to agree a deal with former Bolton Wanderers players Liam Gordon and it is clear that there is a lot of work he wants to do this summer at the club.

Indeed, he’s aiming to get them ready for a play-off challenge and his second arrival is McEntee, with the defender joining on a two-year deal from Premier League side Newcastle United.

McEntee didn’t manage to break into the Newcastle side during his time at the club and so this is a move that makes sense for all involved.

Walsall confirmed the news on social media earlier on today:
