Speaking to the clubs website after Sharps signed a two year deal earlier to rejoin the Millers, boss Evans revealed he had a bid of £100,000 turned down when he was Crawley manager.
But today he joyfully said: "It has taken a long time to get Ian here.
"He has had a fantastic two years at Shrewsbury, he is someone we admire and respect and I am looking forward to seeing him in action."
More reaction to come shortly...
