Algerian midfielder Camiel Neghli has found renewed form at Millwall, helping the London club push toward a potential promotion to the Premier League.
Neghli, 24, joined the Championship side from the Dutch league last season in a €3.5 million move that made him Millwall’s most expensive signing at the time.
He initially struggled to secure a regular place in the starting lineup, spending periods on the bench as he adjusted to English football.
In recent weeks, however, Neghli’s performances have drawn praise, and he has been instrumental in several of Millwall’s victories.
The club currently sits fifth in the Championship table, and the midfielder’s form has injected fresh optimism into the team’s promotion bid.
Millwall supporters recognised his influence during the club’s last away win against Wrexham, a 2-0 victory in which Neghli was named man of the match despite not scoring or assisting.
His recent deployment as a left winger, a change from his usual right-sided role, appears to have unlocked his attacking potential and better suits his current strengths.
In comments reported by the BBC, Neghli said: “I feel confident and I’m progressing with the team. I’m very happy.”
Promotion to the Premier League remains a central goal for both Millwall and Neghli.
The player sees strong performances in England as an opportunity to attract attention from Algeria’s national team coach Vladimir Petkovic, with a view to a future call-up.
His resurgence highlights the midfielder’s adaptability and determination after a challenging start in English football.
Millwall manager and fans alike will hope Neghli can maintain his form in the coming months, as the club seeks to secure a top-six finish and compete in the Championship playoffs.
For Neghli, the opportunity to relaunch his ambitions at both club and international level is a chance to establish himself as one of Algerian football’s rising talents.
