Walsall’s new loan signing Ryan Finnigan wasted no time in announcing himself to Saddlers supporters. The 20-year-old midfielder, who arrived on a season-long loan from Blackpool in mid-August, scored the opening goal just four minutes into his debut as Walsall defeated Shrewsbury Town 3-1 in the EFL Trophy on Tuesday night.
His early strike set the tone for a commanding performance from the visitors, who secured victory thanks to further goals and a resilient midfield display. For Finnigan, the goal marks a perfect beginning to his Walsall chapter and adds to the growing excitement surrounding his signing.
Manager and fans alike will be encouraged by the youngster’s composure, energy, and immediate impact. With plenty of fixtures ahead, Finnigan looks set to play a central role in Walsall’s campaign.
