Millwall swoop for Tottenham starlet Obika

Millwall are signing Jonathan Obika on loan from Tottenham after the striker returned from Yeovil.

Yeovil boss Terry Skiverton praised Obika's impact at the club and believes the forward was looking to move back to the London area.

Skiverton told the club's official website: "We've been very lucky to have Jon with us for almost a year at Yeovil.

"He was only 18 when he joined us and he's been with us for the best part of a season scoring some vital goals.

"He is going to return to spend some time with his family. Over the past 12 months, he hasn't had much of a break except for his international trip to Egypt.

"He is a very humble person; a family guy and everyone at the club wishes Jon all the very best for the future."
