Millwall manager Neil Harris has made it clear that while the club is gearing up for the January transfer window, he’s not in a rush to overhaul the squad drastically.
Harris has emphasized that Millwall’s current focus is on strengthening key areas, particularly where the squad has faced issues with injuries and a lack of depth.
He admitted that they have been short on options during parts of the Championship campaign, especially in the attack, where suspensions and injuries have hindered the team’s performance
Harris has pointed out that the January window is always challenging, as clubs are typically reluctant to let go of in-form players. Instead of panicking, Harris and his team are prepared to wait for the right opportunities to present themselves.
He is focused on making well-considered decisions to enhance the squad, rather than rushing into deals that may not align with the long-term goals of the club
Millwall is also keen on adding a center-back following a significant knee injury to Byron Webster, who has been sidelined for a long period.
However, Harris remains realistic about the difficulties of the January market and is determined to make strategic, well-thought-out signings.
This patient approach is supported by Millwall’s recent form, with Harris acknowledging that the squad has performed well despite the challenges, which gives them some flexibility to wait for the right deals
. As the January window approaches, fans can expect Harris to target a few key positions, but he remains firm that not everything can be fixed in one transfer window.
His goal is to build a squad capable of sustained success, balancing immediate improvements with a long-term vision for the club
