Forest Green defender Scott Laird has joined Walsall on a loan deal until the end of the season.

The defender has played just one game for Rovers this season, which came back in August in the Carabao Cup against Swindon Town.

The 30-year-old had a successful spell at the Saddlers during the 2016-17 season.

Laird joined Rovers back in June 2017.

He's made 45 appearances at Forest Green in all competitions and has netted three goals.
