Millwall have signed Brentford defender Tristan Crama on a long-term contract for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old French centre-back was recalled from his loan spell at Exeter City by the Bees on Thursday after helping to keep nine clean sheets across his 26 appearances for the Grecians.

He was signed by Brentford B from French club AS Beziers in 2020 and spent last season on loan with Bristol Rovers in League One.

"Tristan is a player we've been watching for a while," Millwall director of football Steve Gallen said, external.

"He is a young, mobile centre-half who can handle the ball. There were a few clubs in for him but he chose us - I'm really pleased we managed to secure his signature."

Crama, who is new Millwall boss Alex Neil's second signing of the January window, will be available for the Lions' home game against Hull City on Saturday (12:30 GMT).
