Miller bid expected within weeks, says father

Lennon Miller's father expects a bid for the Motherwell midfielder to come "if not this week, maybe next week".

Motherwell drew 2-2 with Clyde on Saturday, winning the Premier Sports Cup group game bonus point by prevailing in the penalty shootout, without their 18-year-old Scotland international.

Lee Miller, who played for Aberdeen, Dundee United, Hearts and Scotland said his son's injury is "not serious".

"Hopefully, he'll be back soon," Miller senior told BBC Radio Scotland's Sportsound.

"I think there will be a bid comes in, if not this week, maybe next week. There's a lot of talk behind the scenes and the clubs are speaking together and we'll see what happens."

Lennon Miller has played 76 times for Motherwell, scoring six goals, and when asked if a move abroad was likely, Lee Miller replied: "Yeah, potentially.

"He's got ambition. He wants to play at the highest level possible.

"He had a great season last season, finishing off the season with two Scotland caps, which was tremendous. He wants to take it to another level and we'll see what happens over the next few weeks.

"He just wants to play football. He would've played in that game yesterday. He just wants to play football and enjoy it and that's what he does best."
