SKY CONFIRM: Walsall FC in Advanced £391k Deal with AFC Wimbledon
Sky Sports has confirmed that Walsall FC are in serious transfer negotiations with AFC Wimbledon over a deal worth £391,000. The League Two sides are discussing the potential transfer of a key player, with sources suggesting that Walsall are targeting AFC Wimbledon’s standout midfielder as part of a summer squad rebuild.
Talks are said to be at an advanced stage, with both clubs optimistic a deal can be struck before the window gains full momentum. Walsall manager Mat Sadler is keen to bolster his midfield options, and sees this move as a statement of intent ahead of the new season.
The proposed fee of £391k would represent one of the biggest outlays by Walsall in recent years, underlining the club’s ambition to push for promotion. AFC Wimbledon are considering the offer seriously, though they may hold out for additional add-ons or a sell-on clause.
