The 21-year-old made two appearances for the Saddlers before being released in 2016.

During his spell at the Banks's Stadium, he was sent out on loan to Worcester City and Kidderminster Harriers.

Murphy was most recently at Evo-Stik Northern Premier side Stourbridge and will be up against the likes of Marcus Dinanga, Anthony Dwyer and Matthew Barnes-Homer for a Bucks starting berth.

Meanwhile, Telford midfielder Joe Fitzpatrick is on the verge of a move to Stafford Rangers.

The 20-year-old has found first team opportunities hard to come by under Rob Edwards.
