Millwall boss Gary Rowett: QPR’s latest bid for Danny McNamara nowhere near our valuation – we want to keep him
Millwall manager Gary Rowett has once again underlined the club’s desire to keep Danny McNamara and added that QPR’s latest bid comes nowhere near their valuation of the young defender.
The Lions instantly rejected the latest offer from the west Londoners.
Millwall are in talks with McNamara, 23, over a new long-term contract.
Rowett told the South London Press: “I think there has been a couple of offers [from QPR]. First and foremost Danny is our player and we want him to continue to be our player, he has developed really well.
“For me, when you have got a young player who has done really well you want them to progress and be part of your plans. He’s a player the fans like a lot and we like a lot – you don’t want those sort of players to leave.
“It’s an interesting one really because of the level of the bids – I wouldn’t bid for a QPR young player for that sort of amount, because it’s not even going to be close to any kind of valuation.
“At this moment in time I can’t imagine that changing. We want Danny McNamara to be our player and to develop and move forward with us. It’s a bit of a non-story, if I’m being honest.
“My focus is on Danny signing his contract. He’s been offered a good deal by the club and hopefully he’ll sign that contract soon.”
