Virals: Liverpool confirm Sheyi Ojo loan departure

Liverpool have confirmed the loan departure of winger Sheyi Ojo to Championship side Millwall. 

The 24-year-old joins the Lions for the entire 2021/22 campaign as manager Gary Rowett hopes to steer the London club up the table.

This move is Ojo’s seventh loan spell away from Anfield in a 10-year spell with the Reds.

The completion of the season-long switch was confirmed by the club’s official website and Twitter late on transfer deadline day.

Best of luck for the season ahead, Sheyi 👊 (@LFC)

Capped once at Under 21 level by England, Ojo has previously enjoyed spells with Wigan Athletic, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Fulham, Reims, and Rangers.

Most recently the London-born ace scored five and assisted another seven goals on loan at Cardiff City in the second-tier. 

READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Valued at £2.7million (Transfermarkt), Liverpool must surely be hoping another successful temporary move can lead to a permanent transfer. 

Ultimately it would seem the opportunity to break into the first-team under Jurgen Klopp has been and gone following a short run of games in 2015/16.

Once a highly regarded winger, Ojo needs to resurrect a floundering career and will hope to do so sooner rather than later.
