Neil Harris looking to strengthen Millwall squad

Millwall manager Neil Harris admits that he is looking into the possibility of delving into the loan market to bolster his ranks due to growing injury concerns.

Neil Harris has revealed that he is planning on adding to his Millwall squad over the next fortnight.

The Lions were dealt a double injury blow on the weekend when Jimmy Abdou and Ed Upson were forced off against Peterborough United.

Following the midweek Football League Trophy clash with Northampton Town, Millwall have a chance to regroup ahead of their next league outing on October 17.

Speaking to the club's official website, Harris talked up the prospect of utilising the loan market to bolster his playing ranks.

"We've certainly got that option," he said. "With injuries to two key midfield players we are looking at the possibility of strengthening the squad.

"After the game against Northampton we have a big 11-day break to assess where we are and reflect on the first chunk of games this season.

"It gives us a chance to look at who has impressed, who hasn't and evaluate what areas could do with strengthening."

Millwall are currently 15th in the League One table after collecting 14 points from their opening 11 fixtures.
