With a bid reportedly now accepted by Southampton, Millwall have opened formal talks with William Smallbone over personal terms. The midfielder is said to be keen on the move, though full details of the contract are still being worked through. Negotiations are active, and the next 24-48 hours could prove decisive in closing the deal - with optimism growing that he will be a Millwall player before too long. Wrexham remain in the background, but for now, Millwall are leading the way in ongoing talks. In season 25/26, Millwall are conceding 1.5 goals per game (12 in 8 games), which points to a lack of control in midfield. William Smallbone would be expected to calm things down and protect the back line better. Southampton have also been linked with Elias Jelert Kristensen, Tom Fellows and Finn Azaz while Millwall are reportedly monitoring Thierno Ballo and Caleb Taylor.
