Former Sky Blues captain joins Walsall
Walsall have completed the signing of former Coventry City captain Stephen Hughes on a free transfer.
The one-time Arsenal, Fulham and Everton man has joined the Saddlers following a four-year spell with the Sky Blues.
Walsall boss Jimmy Mullen wasted little time in snapping up the 31-year-old midfielder after learning of his availability.
"As soon as I found out that Stephen was available as a free agent I was after him," Mullen told the club's
official website.
Highest level
"He is a player in the prime of his career who has played at the highest level and he is captain material.
"He will bring plenty of quality and know-how to the team. We have a lot of young players here and they can only learn from him.
"We have worked hard to beat off competition from other clubs to get him here. He is a player that I am looking forward to working with."
