Walsall FC have confirmed that on-loan Arsenal defender Krystian Bielik, who is yet to make a first-team appearance despite joining the club on Transfer Deadline Day, has been training with the rest of the Saddlers squad over the last week as he looks to make a return from injury.
Bielik, who spent part of 2016/17 on-loan with Birmingham City, was due to link up with the Saddlers at the end of January but suffered a setback while making his return from shoulder surgery and subsequently remained with his parent club as they looked to aid his return to fitness.
It is not known if Krystian will be fit for the Saddlers' upcoming Sky Bet League One clash with Portsmouth, but his return to training will serve as a boost to the backline as they look to earn enough points to secure the club's position in the third tier of English football.
