Millwall beat several rivals to sign Southend winger David Worrall, Neil Harris has revealed.

The 26-year-old will join the Lions in July following the expiration of his current deal at Roots Hall and agreed a two-year deal with Millwall.

Harris believes Worrall will provide his side with a different threat next season.

He said: “David carries the ball up the pitch well and has good delivery.

“He adds something different to the team; the type of thing we saw a lot last season when we had Jed [Wallace] on loan.

“David has good experience of this division and played extremely well when I watched him last year. He comes with really good references on his character from people I know well.

“He has played right-wing for most of his career but has also played as an attacking option at right-back and a lot on the left-hand side.

“We're delighted to get him as there was a lot of competition for his signature.”
