Ebere Eze will  have to seek pastures new in the summer, with League One side Millwall announcing on Tuesday that the forward has not been offered a professional contract.

Eze is among five youth-teamers on the books of the Lions declared surplus to requirements by Academy director Scott Fitzgerald.

The talented striker was playing for Millwall’s U18 squad before he was promoted to the U21s following a string of fine performances.

He netted his first hat-trick for the Under 21s in their 4-1 thrashing of Queens Park Rangers in October 2015.

Winger Fred Onyedinma still has a valid contract with the Londoners until June 30, 2017.
