As the Saddlers head towards the end of the 2014/15 Sky Bet League 1 campaign, midfielder Sam Mantom, who has missed the vast majority of the season through a knee injury, has spoken to the local press and discussed his plans for a summer of fitness training.
Speaking to the Express & Star, Sam said; “I am not going away much. I am only going away for a few days just before the start of pre-season, but most of May and June I will be spending with the fitness coach here, Dean Harris.
“I’ll be doing a lot of power and fitness work so I can go back into the season absolutely flying and stronger than ever before.
“It’s quite weird because I feel quite fresh now and ready to play every game but the season is ending. My knee is really good, my fitness feels fine and I’m just looking forward to playing my part now and being back in the squad, which I’ve missed a lot.”
