Good news for former Shamrock Rovers striker as he prepares to return from injury

Former Shamrock Rovers striker Aidomo Emakhu is closing in on a return to fitness at Millwall.

The 19-year-old has yet to make an appearance for his new side, having injured his quad in training just weeks after making the move from Tallaght Stadium.

However, he has been pencilled in for a comeback with the club’s Under-21 side next Tuesday against QPR.

“At the moment, I think we’re alright, I don’t think there are too many not training,” said Lions boss Gary Rowett.

“It’s more or less Tyler (Burey) and Aidomo are the ones that are out.”

Emakhu made the move to Millwall when the January transfer window opened, after an impressive spell at Rovers both in the League of Ireland and in Europe.
