Walsall have this afternoon signed former Everton full back Daniel Fox on a two year contract.

The 19 year old product of the Merseysider’s youth system was released the same day as new signing Anthony Gerrard and the two are good friends. Fox impressed Mick Halsall while he was watching Gerrard with a view to taking him on loan last season. He has had first team experience whilst on loan at Stranraer.

Fox is a specialist left back, who can play centre back and even left midfield, at a pinch.

Born: England
Nationality: England
Position: Left Back
DOB: 29/5/1986

He’s 1.80 metres tall, weighs 73 kilos and is described as “pacy”.
