Neil Harris revealed how close Millwall was to the signature of an attacker on the day of the transfer deadline.
Rudy Gestede was one of the many names in the South London club, but the Middlesbrough striker turned down a loan application to the Lions and decided to stay at the Riverside despite the fact that he was only starting single league game this season.
The boss of Millwall has only two senior strikers in form. Summer season, Tom Bradshaw is already ruled out for the season after breaking his anterior cruciate ligament, while Tom Elliott has not played since his dislocation of the shoulder during the first day of the 2-bout defeat 0 against Blackburn Rovers on January 12th.
To add insult to injury, top scorer Lee Gregory missed a chance in added time to earn Harris's three points against Rotherham United on Saturday.
The Lions leader expressed his frustration at not being able to add another striker to his ranks. He said, "We were very close, there was a stadium where I thought one was done, in fact, I thought more than one was done.
"What I do not understand is that a lot of players decide to stay in clubs where they will not play clearly, I did not want to play, I wanted to play.
"But it was difficult, you saw the lack of action, it was not a bad thing for me, it was not a bad thing that there was a lack of action on the day Due, because it stopped It was the least money spent for a long time.
"I'm happy, the window is a brothel, you have to change, I've already said, so I think we saw a lot of clubs trying to do business and we could not. from a dozen or so that tried the limit day in the championship and could not. "
Harris was also asked if Tom Elliott was likely to be presented this month. He said, "Let's hope so." The problem with Tom is only strength, he plays on the training ground every day.
"Physically, he can do anything, it's just that shoulder – the danger of bringing it back again, and the physical contact, we hope to be able to integrate Tom slowly, and as for the date, I'm not sure."
