Millwall has secured Josh Coburn on a permanent transfer from Middlesbrough for a club-record fee. The 22-year-old, who previously impressed the Lions during his loan spell by scoring five goals in 21 appearances, has now signed a long-term contract. His successful partnership with Mihailo Ivanovic and remarkable performance under head coach Alex Neil have made him a sought-after player. Millwall’s director of football, Steve Gallen, emphasized Coburn's potential and impact, endorsing the transfer as a major statement of intent for the club ahead of their Championship season opener.
"It's no secret that we've been eager to bring him in on a permanent deal. We've been long-term admirers - he's a young centre-forward with exactly the qualities we've been looking for."
"Josh made a significant impact for us last season, particularly the second half of the season where he really stepped up. He scored some crucial goals and contributed in so many other important ways on the pitch."
