Millwall have signed forward Femi Azeez from Reading for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old scored 11 goals in 89 games for the Royals after joining the club from Wealdstone in 2019.

Azeez, who can play as a winger or a striker, becomes Neil Harris's sixth summer recruit after signing a "long-term" deal.

"He's quick, dynamic, he takes players on, gets crosses into the box and loves to score a goal," Millwall's director of football Steve Gallen told the club's website, external.

"He's played in a good, young Reading side and is the exact type of signing we want to bring into the football club."

Millwall have no points from their first two Championship games, having lost 3-2 to Watford and 4-3 at Bristol City.
