Lions sign right-back from Reading

Millwall have signed 25-year-old right-back Shaun Cummings on a two and a half year deal after agreeing terms with Reading.Cummings played a major role in Reading's promotion to the Premier League in 2011/12, making nine appearances in the top flight the following season.Having struggled to hold down a regular first team spot at the Madejski this term, Shaun has jumped at the chance of a move to The Den and the opportunity to stake a claim for regular football once more.Talking about his latest acquisition, Ian Holloway said: "Nigel Gibbs has worked with Shaun before so he knows exactly what we are getting."He can play at wing-back or at right-back and he can run all day long. He can attack and he played in a team that got promoted out of this division."We're delighted to have Shaun on board as I think he can be a real asset for us over the short and long-term. He gives us a new option and as a player he can contribute in defence and in attack."
