Millwall have broken their club record fee to sign Sparta Rotterdam winger Camiel Neghli.

The 23-year-old Dutch-born Algerian Under-20 international's fee is greater than the reported £2.8m Millwall spent on Mihailo Ivanovic last summer.

Neghli moved to Sparta from De Graafschap in the summer of 2023 and has scored 10 goals in 47 league appearances for the Rotterdam side.

"I'm over the moon to welcome Camiel to the club," Millwall's director of football Steve Gallen told the club website.

"We've been monitoring him for a long time and believe he's the right type of player to add real quality to the side.

"He has demonstrated the ability to not only operate as a right-winger, but also pose a threat in the number 10 role.

"He's quick, dynamic, and whilst naturally left-footed, he's not afraid to shoot and score goals with both feet."
