McGhee reveals deal with Sara

Millwall boss Mark McGhee has revealed he is about to sign Dundee striker Juan Sara.

McGhee hopes to take the Argentinian striker on loan initially, with a view to a permanent deal.

The news emerged after Millwall lost 1-0 to Gillingham, their fourth defeat in a row.

McGhee said: "Our recent form is no mystery to me. We haven't got strength in depth. We are missing Richard Sadlier in particular. He has been a huge loss to us.

"I keep telling our supporters we have looked everywhere to try and find a centre forward and now I have found one and he is arriving in London on Sunday night.

"He is a target player and the type of player we have been looking for and I have good reports about him from Alex McLeish and Eric Black.

"We need a lift from his arrival and I also hope to sign two more players before Thursday's deadline, another striker and a midfield player.

"I feel my players are out on their legs at the moment. Their performance is fine and I can't have any complaints about that.
