Doughty set to complete Lions switch | OneFootball

Millwall have reached an agreement with Luton Town for the permanent signing of Alfie Doughty, according to reports.

The 25-year-old is expected to complete a medical with the Lions in the coming days, and the wing-back is tipped to operate in more attacking areas for the south London side next season.

The Charlton Athletic academy product had spells at Stoke and Cardiff before signing for Luton in the summer of 2022 for an undisclosed amount - the left-footer going on to become a key figure in the Hatters team that clinched Premier League promotion.

Doughty recorded an outstanding eight Premier League assists in the top flight in 2023/24, but was unable to prevent the Bedfordshire side slipping straight back into the Championship, and the Hatters were subsequently relegated to League One last term after a torrid 2024/25 campaign.

The talented wide man suffered an injury-plagued campaign last season. He missed over two months of football towards the end of last year and then suffered a hamstring tear which ruled him out from mid-April onwards.

However, Doughty still managed to weigh in with four Championship assists and, in addition, supplied 2.4 key passes per game - more than any player to play more than 200 minutes in the second tier last season.
