The loan agreement between Walsall and Premier League outfit Burnley, which saw winger Josh Ginnelly enjoy a six-month spell at Banks's Stadium, has now come to an end with the former Shrewsbury Town man returning to his parent club.
Coventry born Ginnelly began his career with Aston Villa and Shrewsbury Town before joining Burnley for an undisclosed fee in 2015, after turning down professional terms at Greenhous Meadow.

The 19-year-old, who spent time on loan with Altrincham in January 2016, initially struggled to make an impact at the club but went on to make fourteen first-team appearances in a Saddlers shirt and will no doubt return to his club a better player than the one that arrived earlier in the campaign.
Gino is expected to return to the Clarets' Under 23 side before another possible loan switch during the January transfer window.
