DONE DEAL: Burnley On a verge to bring another strong signing” – to the Squad.

 

The Lions are set to rival Coventry City in trying to sign Luke McNally this summer, reports suggest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Premier League team is willing to send its player out on loan once more this season, according to Alan Nixon via

Patreon, and Millwall intends to sign him.

 

Millwall would then compete with Coventry for McNally, as the Sky Blues are also eager to sign the central defender this

summer.

The 22-year-old played a regular role for the team as they advanced to the Championship Play-Off Final while spending the

second half of last season at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

 

Would Luke McNally be a good signing for Millwall?

With the above Millwall transfer link in mind, though, below, three of our FLW writers have assessed whether or not this

would be a good signing for the Lions.

Declan Harte

McNally proved a smart signing for Coventry in the second half of the season.

The defender showed that he is ready to compete for a top Championship side, with excellent performances for the Sky

Blues.

The Irishman would therefore be a smart signing for Millwall, as he would command a starting position in Gary Rowett’s

side.

McNally should be prioritising game time next season and he is unlikely to get that at Burnley, so a move away also makes

most sense for him.

Coventry may have the advantage in this transfer battle due to his history with the club, but if Millwall can sway him in their

direction then it could be excellent business for the Lions.

 

Brett Worthington

This would be another strong signing through the door for Millwall.

The 23-year-old showed at Coventry City in the second half of last season that he is a player who has all the attributes to

succeed at this level.

It seems in Vincent Kompany’s eyes that he isn’t ready for first-team action at Burnley, so another loan move makes sense.

McNally went from playing no football in the early parts of the season to a consistent presence in the Coventry defence,

playing a big role in the club reaching the play-offs.

So, this is definitely a signing that Millwall should do all they can to secure, and given the fact that they are somewhat light

in the central area of defence, it is a must for Gary Rowett ahead of the new campaign.

Simmey Hannifin-Donaldson

With Burnley after Zian Flemming at the moment, this transfer link is fascinating.

Could McNally potentially be used in a deal for the Dutchman? Only time will tell.

As for the signing itself, this would be a good signing for Millwall in my opinion.

McNally showed last season at Coventry City that his move up to the Championship did not come too soon and proved a

solid addition to their backline as they fought for Premier League promotion.

It’s no surprise to hear that the Sky Blues want him back, but if Millwall can sneak in and snap him up ahead of them, it

be really good business for Gary Rowett’s side.
