Lennon Miller: What next for Motherwell teenager?


Miller and his dad have always maintained playing regularly is the priority.

Moving away from these shores might be his best chance to do that, while others also think it would be a good fit for his game.

Both Udinese and Union Saint-Gilloise reportedly had bids rejected for Miller in January, and they will unlikely to be the last offers coming in.

Talented young Scottish players have increasingly looked to move abroad in recent seasons.

Whether it is Aaron Hickey and Lewis Ferguson enhancing their careers while playing at Bologna, or Max Johnston tasting title success and Champions League football after leaving Motherwell for Sturm Graz in Austria, the template is there.

Others like recent Scotland debutants Josh Doig and Andy Irving have also progressed in their careers through playing regularly abroad, while there is the influence of more senior players Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour at Napoli.

“Lennon’s next move is so important, because a lot of players will get sucked into going to just a massive club and going, right, I’ve arrived,” dad Lee said.

“But there needs to be a lot of thought process, and there has been a lot of thought process of his next move, because it’s a development move again.

“This is what we planned out for him, in terms of playing loads of games in the first team, doing really well, and it’s on him to do that.

“There was a pathway there at Motherwell, and the next one, for me, is important because he has to play, he has to develop, he has to then kick on again.

“Once he’s round about better players, no disrespect to the Motherwell players, but once he’s round about top class elite players, he will then kick on again, in my opinion.

“And I think he has that inner belief, and it’s not arrogance, it’s just a belief. And he wants to play football.”
