Gary Rowett has given his views on the January Transfer Window and what Millwall are looking for.
The Lions drew 0-0 against Bristol City in their last match of 2022 and the window is now just two days away from opening.
Rowett told the South London Press: “Can we push to get a player in that can can really help us improve? We don’t need squad players and we don’t need depth in the squad. What we need is players who can come in and add that extra competition and extra quality to the starting 11.
“It’s not easy to do that but myself, Alex [Aldridge], Steve [Kavanagh] and John [Berylson] certainly will be looking at that and whether there is a player out there, or two, than can improve what we’re doing.
“We’ll always try to fit that into the profiles of what we want long term as well as short term.
“We hope to do one or two bits of business. It’s always a tricky window and it’s also tricky when you’re doing well, because you don’t want to upset the balance of your team and your group.
“But a sensible addition, the right kind of addition, would be something we’d look at. John is always open to that – if we can bring someone in now that strengthens us, and essentially it means we don’t need that position in the summer, then it is good forward planning.
“They are the sort of meetings we’ve had. We’ll try and be sensible in that approach for the right player. Well certainly looking at some good players and hoping we might be able to add them to the group.”
