Millwall Sign Peterborough United Star for Under £3m
Peterborough United have confirmed that Millwall have completed a deal for forward Kyrell Lisbie for under £3m. The 22-year-old has undergone a medical and the final touches are being completed on the paperwork for a deal.
Why it Matters for Peterborough United
The departure of Lisbie will be a significant blow to Peterborough United, who will need to find a replacement for their star man. The club will be hoping to find a suitable replacement to fill the gap left by Lisbie's departure.
What Comes Next?
The transfer window is still open, and Peterborough United will be looking to make further signings to strengthen their squad. The club will be hoping to build on their recent performances and push for a top-half finish in League One.
Millwall have already spent considerably in this transfer window, and the addition of Lisbie only adds more firepower to their attack. The 22-year-old was a standout in his debut campaign at London Road, and so much so, he signed a four-year extension on his contract until 2030.
League Standing
League standing (final 2025 table -- new season not yet under way): 18th in League One, 53 pts, 15W-8D-23L from 46 games, recent form LDLDL.
Goals this season: 64 scored, 68 conceded (-4 goal difference).
Title race: 50 points behind leaders Lincoln.
Millwall have already addressed their left-wing problems by signing Lisbie, who will provide much-needed width to their attack. The 22-year-old was a standout in his debut campaign at London Road, and so much so, he signed a four-year extension on his contract until 2030.
The Verdict
Under £3m is a good price for Millwall to sign Lisbie, considering his contract length and his breakout season in League One. The 22-year-old was superb in his first campaign in professional football, and the step-up to the Championship could be too much, too soon, given his recent rise through the leagues. However, for that price tag, the Lions can afford to take a gamble. Time will tell next season, but the 22-year-old certainly has the potential to thrive at his new club.
