Walsall Football Club midfielder Sam Mantom, who has missed out on the vast majority of this season's action with a knee injury, has now returned to training after many months of treatment.
20-year-old Mantom took to Twitter to acknowledge his return to training, he said: "Just left (the) training ground, and what a great day it has been."
There is now a suggestion that Stourbridge born Mantom, who was last season's 'Player of the Season', could play a part in the Saddlers' Reserves clash with Morecambe Reserves in the Final Third Development League (West), which is due to take place at Chasetown's Scholars Ground on Tuesday, 10th March.
