MILLWALL’S next two Championship fixtures have been postponed due to a coronavirus outbreak in the first-team squad.

Games against Bournemouth and Watford over the Christmas period will now be played at a later date while the club’s training ground has been closed.

Millwall chief executive Steve Kavanagh said: “This is a very regrettable but necessary move.

“Throughout this entire pandemic the safety and welfare of our players, staff, fans and other stakeholders has been our main priority and it is with this in mind that we have closed the training ground and notified the EFL of the need to postpone the next two fixtures.

“I wish everyone concerned a quick and full recovery.”
