Millwall

Gary Rowett has underlined that Millwall’s moves in the summer transfer window to strengthen their attacking department is going to be pivotal to their hopes of improving on their 2021-22 Championship campaign.

Bartosz Bialkowski has told his Millwall team-mates to be proud of their latest Championship season.

The 48-year-old was appointed by Millwall in October 2019.

The 28-year-old playmaker is out of contract at the end of June and enjoyed a rapturous reception from the club’s travelling fans at AFC Bournemouth last Saturday.

The Newcastle United attacking midfielder spent the second half of the season on loan at Bristol Rovers where he scored eight goals and provided five assists in 21 games with the Gas.

The attacker came on in the 58th minute for Mason Bennett in the Lions’ 1-0 defeat.

The Lions took 12 points from seven matches and netted 14 goals in that month, their best scoring run of the campaign.

Gary Rowett is the new betting favourite for the QPR managerial job – after his odds were slashed to 5/2.

The Lions are keen on signing the Newcastle United attacker in this summer’s transfer window.

The 22-year-old Northern Ireland international made 33 appearances for the Lions with a couple of injuries – including knee surgery – preventing him clocking up even more game time.

The Dutch midfielder, who turns 32 next month, is out of contract this summer.
