Leeds United man bound for London as Championship club set to complete double swoop - YEP 18/7/22
Leeds United’s Jamie Shackleton is set to join Millwall on a season-long loan with a medical booked in for the 22-year-old
By Joe Donnohue
Leeds midfielder Jamie Shackleton is set to join up with
Charlie Cresswell on loan at Championship side Millwall for the 2022/23 season.
22-year-old Shackleton has missed Leeds’ pre-season tour of
Australia in order to push through his loan switch.
He follows teenage centre-back and England Under-21
international Cresswell to The Den where he will work under Gary Rowett.
South London Press report Shackleton is due for a medical
with his loan move set to be all tied up this week.
Unlike Cresswell’s straight loan deal, Shackleton’s switch
could be made permanent next summer in a similar situation to Tyler Roberts who
joined fellow London side Queens Park Rangers on loan earlier this window.
