LOAN WATCH: Afobe returns to Arsenal from Millwall

Injury has cut short the Millwall loan spell of Arsenal youngster Benik Afobe.

The 20-year old attacker tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee against Wolves on Tuesday and will head back to his parent club for treatment after he undergoes surgery.

Afobe played five times for the Lions after arriving last month but unfortunately will play no further part this season.

"Everybody at Millwall FC would like to wish Benik a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him back in action as soon as possible," read a Millwall statement.
