MILLWALL’S head of technical scouting Dan McLoone has left the club after fourteen years.
The South London understands that McLoone has joined Leyton Orient as the League One club’s head of recruitment.
Lions supporter McLoone’s association with the club started with Millwall Community Trust before he became the academy video analyst in 2012.
In eight-and-a-half years as the first-team video analyst, McLoone worked under Kenny Jackett and Neil Harris and was part of two League One play-off final victories.
McLoone stepped up to become head of technical scouting in June 2022 under manager Gary Rowett.
“I am sad to see Dan go,” Steve Gallen, Millwall’s director of football, said. “Dan was a great help to me when I joined the club last summer.
“He is a big character around the place and a big Millwall fan, but he now moves on to his new role with our best wishes.”
The club added: “Thanks for your service, Dan – and best of luck with what comes next.”
It is the second departure this summer of a long-term member of Millwall’s staff supporting the first team.
The Lions’ head of recruitment analytics, Nicholas Tyler-Hicks, left to link up with Harris at Cambridge United to become their new head of recruitment.
