Millwall attacker ruled out for rest of the Championship season
Aidomo Emakhu has been ruled out for the rest of the season due to a hamstring injury.
Millwall signed the young Irish striker from Shamrock Rovers in January.
Emakhu, 19, made his debut for the Lions against Burnley last month.
“He’s one who hasn’t played loads of 90-minute games and we played him in the U21s, towards the end he felt something in his hamstring,” said Lions boss Gary Rowett. “At this stage of the season anything more than a small tear is going to leave you out until the end of the season.
“I don’t think it is too serious, but for him it is a disappointment. He’d made an appearance and been around our group in training every day and looked really bright.
“He’ll be disappointed but I’m sure he’ll bounce back. It’s been an up-and-down six months for him but he has come from a different league, you take the rough with the smooth, and you’ve got to use that moving forward into next season. That’s the important bit. It’s what you learn from it.”
