Andy Wilkinson: Millwall sign Stoke City defender on loan

Wilkinson's only Stoke appearance this season came in the 3-0 League Cup win over Portsmouth

Millwall have signed long-serving Stoke City defender Andy Wilkinson on a three-month loan deal.

The 30-year-old has made almost 200 appearances for the Potters since making his debut in 2001 after coming through the club's academy.

However, he has struggled for game time since Mark Hughes replaced Tony Pulis as manager in 2013.

Millwall lost regular right-back Carlos Edwards to a season-ending knee injury against Nottingham Forest in September.

The loan deal for Wilkinson, who signed a one-year contract with a 12-month option with the Potters during the summer, contains a recall option after the first month.
