Millwall forward Aiden O’Brien has an outside chance of returning to the matchday squad against Brentford, according to Neil Harris.
But the Lions boss has ruled the 24-year-old out of tonight’s trip to Hull.
O’Brien hasn’t featured since scoring in the 4-3 win over Leeds in January due to an ankle injury.
Harris told News Shopper: “He’s back in full training this week and he won’t be available for Hull. There’s no pressure on Aiden.
“Will he be involved later in the week [against Brentford]? Possibly.

“There’s an outside chance he could be available for the squad for Saturday.
“But more realistically he’ll need minutes in the Under-23s before being considered for first-team action.”
O’Brien, who’s scored six goals this season, faces a fight to regain a starting berth with Wolves loanee Ben Marshall impressing in his absence.
