Wrexham have joined the race to sign Femi Azeez from Millwall in the final days of the transfer window.

According to the Daily Mail, the Red Dragons seek to add the winger to Phil Parkinson’s squad before the 1 September deadline.

The 25-year-old’s future has been called into question since the Lions’ failure to achieve promotion last season, when Alex Neil’s team lost in the play-off semi-finals.

The London team finished third in the Championship, one point behind the top two.

Millwall will seek to contend for promotion again this season, and they have made a promising start with two wins in their first two games.

However, Azeez’s future may lay outside of the Den, with demand in his services increasing in the last days of the window.

Wrexham join Brighton in the Femi Azeez transfer race.

It is claimed that Wrexham have entered the hunt for Azeez’s signature in the last days of the transfer window.

The Welsh club is trying to bolster their roster before the transfer window ends, and they have already agreed to sign Jacques Ekomie from Angers.

And now their focus could shift to Azeez, who received numerous accolades for his performances for Millwall in the Championship last season.

However, they face competition from Premier League side Brighton, who are considering signing the forward.

It remains to be seen whether the Lions would be ready to sell to a possible promotion rival, and what asking price will be required to persuade the club to cash in.

Wrexham finished eighth last season and will aim for at least a play-off spot this season, with the ultimate goal of joining the Premier League.

How Wrexham and Millwall fans feel about Femi Azeez’s involvement.

Wrexham fans are dissatisfied with the club’s transfer policy and are anxious that they are becoming panicked as the deadline of September 1 approaches.

Millwall cannot sell Femi Azeez to a promotion rival.

Wrexham have shown a willingness to spend in the transfer market under their Hollywood owners, but Millwall will set a high asking price for Azeez.

The Lions could be in contention for promotion again this season if they can keep someone of his calibre, which makes him very essential.

The prospect to play in the Premier League with a club like Brighton may be quite appealing, and it could yet happen before the market ends.

However, Millwall cannot afford to lose Azeez to a promotion contender such as Wrexham, as doing so would be a big blow to their chances of finishing in the top eight.
