3 Romain Esse replacements Millwall must consider if Crystal Palace strike January deal

One player who it seems Millwall will have a fight on their hands to keep come the January transfer window, is Romain Esse.

The 19-year-old has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign with the Lions, scoring three goals and providing one assist in 12 Championship appearances.

By contrast, he found the net two times in 25 league outings across the whole of last season, highlighting the progress he is making.

That though, is starting to attract plenty of interest from elsewhere, with Premier League side Crystal Palace reportedly considering a January move for the attacking midfielder.

Of course, the Eagles do have plenty of history when it comes to signing players from the Championship, so it could be hard for Millwall to keep Esse, if they do make their move.

Should that happen, the 19-year-old looks as though he would leave a void for Neil Harris’ side that would need to be filled.

So with that in mind, we’ve taken a look at three potential replacement for Esse that Millwall should be considering in case Crystal Palace sign the teenager in January, right here.
