Defender Jid Okeke has returned to Walsall on loan for the rest of the season.
The right-back was a regular starter for the Saddlers in the first half of the season after joining them in the summer window but was recalled by parent club Stockport County at the start of last month following defensive injury troubles at Edgeley Park.
He played three games for the League One promotion hopefuls after that, but has now been freed to rejoin Walsall's push to go up from League Two.
German-born Okeke started out at FC St Pauli and joined Oldham Athletic after moving to England before signing for Stockport in 2023.
