Nathan Lowe Recalled by Stoke City

Nathan Lowe, the 19-year-old striker on loan at Walsall, has been recalled by parent club Stoke City after an impressive spell where he scored 18 goals and provided seven assists in 30 appearances. His performance helped Walsall maintain a substantial lead at the top of League Two, with Lowe being named both the EFL Young Player of the Month for October and the League Two Player of the Month for December. Stoke activated the recall clause in Lowe's loan agreement, with manager Mark Robins eager to assess his capabilities at the Championship level. Following a standout performance in a recent 5-1 victory over Tranmere Rovers, Lowe will join Stoke ahead of their upcoming match against West Bromwich Albion. Walsall expressed their pride in Lowe's development and success during his time with the club, despite their disappointment at losing him. Additionally, Stoke's current position as one of the lowest-scoring teams in the Championship adds urgency to Lowe's return as they seek to bolster their attacking options.
