MILLWALL SELL 2 PLAYERS!!

0 comments
MILLWALL have SOLD two players.

LUIZ ALVARO & HASAN SALIHAMIDZIC  were both sold.

This was a total shock to the MILLWALL Supporters, especially when the club already has a very small squad of players.



LUIZ ALVARO  (CB) was sold to VILA NOVA for -  £3m.
HASAN SALIHAMIDZIC (RM/RB) was sold to JUVENTUS for - £4.8m.

Millwall went into the red again and although these players were transfer listed, the process was speeded up due to finance and our recent result against Brentford.
It is understood that most of the transfer money raised will go to the manager to help strengthen the squad and push for a top six finish in the league.
ALVARO was purchased for £2.4m - giving a profit of £0.6m
SALIHAMIDZIC was bought for £3.4m - giving a £1.4m profit.
.
IN TOTAL a £2m PROFIT was raised.

MILLWALL MANAGER STATEMENT:
"I had to make a massive decision on whether to sell players to raise cash or keep it as it was. If it was kept as it was the club would be in and out of the red in a regular basis. Both players were sold which raised £7.8m - a £2m profit on what we paid for them. I will use the cash to buy younger players as they were 33 and 34 respectively.  I will focus on a defender and a midfielder/winger. We hope to be a serious contender for the PLAY-OFF's"
