What happened

Millwall have bolstered their attacking options by signing Scotland international Lyndon Dykes on a one-year deal. Dykes, who has previously played in the EFL Championship with QPR and in the Scottish Premiership with Livingston, brings proven second-tier scoring experience. The move gives Millwall another physical forward option as they prepare for the new season, while Dykes will be looking to reignite his club career after a difficult spell.

Chance analysis

Dykes adds proven Championship-level goal threat and physicality to Millwall's frontline, potentially increasing their scoring depth. For a club with limited financial resources, a one-year deal represents a low-risk, short-term acquisition. From a prediction standpoint, Millwall's attacking options improve marginally, though Dykes' recent form decline tempers expectations of a major upgrade.
