Millwall striker Mason Bennet could be out for six weeks with ankle injury

Mason Bennett could be out for six weeks with the ankle injury he suffered at Ipswich on Saturday.

The 25-year-old limped off during the Lions 3-0 pre-season friendly at Portman Road.

Bennett might not feature until after the first international break of the season in mid October, the club has confirmed.

“Mason looks like he’s going to be out for about six weeks,” boss Gary Rowett said. “We would like to bring another one in but we do not want a squad of up to 27 players. So two or three might move on. But we cannot force that. And we have to add sensibly.”
