Lennon Miller Heads to Italy for Medical with Udinese
Scotland midfielder Lennon Miller has departed from Glasgow Airport en route to Italy, where the 18-year-old from Motherwell is expected to undergo a medical examination with Udinese.
In January, both Udinese and Union Saint-Gilloise had their bids for Miller rejected.
Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou confirmed on Saturday that Miller was omitted from the squad for their goalless draw against St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership due to "circumstances behind the scenes."
Miller has yet to make an appearance this season, as Motherwell previously indicated he had been sidelined with an injury for four weeks.
The son of former Aberdeen and Falkirk striker Lee Miller, he has already accumulated 76 senior appearances. Last season, he was a key player for Motherwell, contributing four goals in 41 matches and earning his first two caps for Scotland.
Regarding Miller's absence, Askou stated: "Yes, it was a final decision considering all factors. It’s no secret that there are ongoing matters. We are aware he has been out for four weeks. How much risk are you willing to take with a player like him in that situation? The conclusion was to keep him out of the match."
