Millwall seal loan deal for Wolves midfielder George Saville

Boss Neil Harris moved for the 22-year-old, who had a brief loan stint at The Den during the 2012/13 season, after midfield duo Jimmy Abdou and Ed Upson were injured at the weekend.

"Losing both Jimmy Abdou and Ed Upson to injury for a period of time was a blow so we were certainly looking to strengthen that midfield area," Harris told the club website.

"George is a boy who has had a brief spell here before so knows the club and the people.

"He has won promotion out of this division with Brentford and also helped Bristol City achieve the same success last season so is used to this league and the level of competition.

"George plays for a Wolves side who line-up in a similar system to us so he will have the knowledge to play the way we like to. He comes highly recommended by (Wolves boss) Kenny Jackett both as a player and a person so we are pleased to have him with us."

Saville could make his second Lions debut against Northampton in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Tuesday night.
