Tommy Watson has moved to Millwall on loan. Watson's minutes have been very limited with the Seagulls, but he is considered a bright longer-term prospect. Millwall are in the promotion race and seem well positioned for a play-off spot. Head coach Fabian Hurzeler said that Tommy has settled in well, but has had a frustrating time with injuries. He added that Watson is now fit and keen to play, and this move gives him the opportunity. Hurzeler stated that he is an exciting young player who now has the chance to help Millwall with their push for Premier League promotion. The coach believes the move will greatly benefit his development, give him significant game time and allow him to build on an outstanding breakthrough season with Sunderland last season, where he was integral in their promotion. The club wishes him well for the second half of the season and looks forward to his return in the summer.
