Transfer news and rumours today

MILLWALL SIGN WALLACE


Millwall have signed winger Jed Wallace from Wolves for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old has put pen to paper on a three-year contract and moves to The Den on a permanent deal, following loans spells with the London club during the past two seasons.

Wallace has made a total of 35 appearances for the Lions, scoring four goals, and was part of the squad which won promotion to the Championship via the League One play-offs last month.

"Jed is a great young man. He's had two loan spells at The Den and thoroughly enjoyed his time here - he was adamant he wanted to come back, too. His desire to come and play for Millwall has been really strong," Millwall boss Neil Harris said.

"I think everyone has seen the attributes he brings and will bring to Championship football. He's a natural wide player, has pace, energy and work ethic and also end product. That's going to be really key towards us having a successful year in The Championship."

BURTON LAND WARNOCK


Burton have signed experienced defender Stephen Warnock on a one-year deal.

The 35-year-old, a former England international who has also played for Liverpool, Blackburn, Aston Villa, Leeds and Derby, arrives at the Pirelli Stadium following his departure from Wigan, who were relegated from the Championship last season.

"Stephen is a good, experienced full-back," Burton boss Nigel Clough told the club's official website.
"We always liked him when he played for Derby and obviously at Wigan most recently. He will give us that experience that you need in the Championship.

"He will bring all the qualities and all the experience - it's ideal and we think he will complement the defenders that we've already got."


FORMER ENGLAND BOSS REASSURES ROONEY OVER CHINA


Sven-Goran Eriksson has reassured Wayne Rooney he would have a "positive experience" if he moved to the Chinese Super League.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, the former England boss said: “I hear a lot that China is not a good place to live for foreign people but that could not be further from the truth.

“I haven’t spoken to Rooney for a long time, so I don’t know what he is thinking, but if he went to China I think he would have a positive experience.”

What Manchester United need to improve after defeat.

Right wing issue continues Bordeaux's left-footed right winger Malcom was United's early January target before Alexis Sanchez became attainable. How to accommodate him in a Premier League fixture was the obvious quandary and Jose Mourinho did so by shifting Anthony Martial to the right flank, which was an obvious error. It was to Martial's credit he fashioned a couple of openings during the first-half horror show and he still spent the majority of it on the fringes, as the enterprising Sanchez troubled Tottenham with his darts across the attacking line. Jesse Lingard did not vindicate the decision to keep him behind Romelu Lukaku. Martial was the inevitable fall guy, given the Sanchez signing and Lingard's fabulous form. Lingard is perhaps the least talented of the trio and it was telling that at the start of the second half he was moved to the right and Martial occupied his favoured left wing berth. The irony is Martial was poorer there. Lingard was substi

Ryan Giggs: Reasons why Manchester United can win the Premier League

Manchester United can win the title this season because they have the experience and balance in their squad to go all the way, according to club legend Ryan Giggs. Following two consecutive 4-0 wins, against both West Ham and Swansea, Jose Mourinho's side have made their best start to a league season since 1907. New signings Nemanja Matic and Romelu Lukaku have hit the ground running and already caught the eye at this early stage of the season. And Giggs feels that with Mourinho in charge, and a squad filled with power and creativity, his former side can finally end their title drought. "I think it was documented when the fixtures came out, while there’s no easy games in the Premier League, it was a pretty good start for Manchester United and the team have delivered with two 4-0 wins," he wrote for Sky Sports. "When Jose Mourinho’s sides get going they are very difficult to stop. He’s done in the past and, while it’s important dea

Shaw: I am ready to make a first-team return

The 22-year-old left-back had not played in any sort of match since damaging ligaments against Swansea City at Old Trafford in April, but he gladly made his return to action at Leigh Sports Village as Ricky Sbragia’s youngsters secured a 1-1 draw, coincidentally against the Swans' youth side. Shaw played for 59 minutes on Monday and so too did Ashley Young, who had also been sidelined through injury since picking up a serious hamstring problem in last season’s UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg tie at Celta Vigo in Spain, rendering Monday an important night for the duo. “I’m feeling really good and I only push on from here,” a smiling Shaw told MUTV after the final whistle. “I’m looking for the first-team spot now, I’m going to keep pushing, and when the manager needs me I’m going to be ready. Whenever that is, I’m really looking forward to it. I’d rather it was sooner rather than later, but I’m feeling good and whenever I’m called upon, I’m ready.
