Millwall have been hit by the news Ipswich Town will be recalling loan striker Danny Haynes when his loan spell expires on Sunday.

The 18-year-old's arrival at the New Den has sparked a revival in fortunes for the Lions as he scored twice in a five-game unbeaten run which has lifted the club off the bottom of League One.

Millwall's caretaker boss Willie Donachie was hopeful of keeping Haynes for a second month, but Town manager Jim Magilton spurned his request and will take him back to Portman Road after this weekend's clash with Swansea.

Magilton told the Evening Star: "Danny will definitely be coming back here.

"That was always the intention as far as I am concerned and I hope he comes back hungry for regular first-team football with us."

He added: "The loan deal was done for pure football reasons. Millwall needed a bit of help and Danny was getting a bit stale here because he wasn't getting enough games."
