A Rosa-ier Future For Denes

The final day of Walsall's season on Saturday will determine two things; their League One survival or otherwise, and the success or failure of their ambitious scoop to sign Hungarian star Denes Rosa.

Rosa, who had a frustrating spell in the West Midlands at nearby Wolves, is currently playing for Ferencvaros in his homeland but his high wages are a drain on the club's finances and he has been advised to seek a move back to England, where he undoubtedly has a point to prove. Saddlers boss Dean Smith has watched DVDs of his recent performances and been impressed, but has also been advised by the player's representatives that he is unwilling to play in the bottom tier of the Football League. Clearly, should the club wish to relive the glory days in the Championship under Ray Graydon and Colin Lee, they will need players of the class of Rosa to allow them to challenge for a playoff spot next term.

Rosa would be available on a free transfer and has maintained a home in the West Midlands since his departure from Molineux in 2008.
