Millwall are in advanced talks to sign Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers on loan, sources have told Football Insider.
Travers joined Bournemouth ahead of the 2015-16 season after joining from Irish side Shamrock Rovers’ youth team.
The goalkeeper would go on to make his Bournemouth debut in 2019 as he played against Tottenham and managed to keep a clean sheet in a 1-0 victory for the Cherries.
Since joining the Premier League side, Travers has been on multiple loans, with his first stint being at Weymouth in 2017, where he managed to score on his debut and and go on to make 23 appearances throughout the campaign.
The Ireland goalkeeper would then go on his second loan to Swindon Town in 2021, where he made eight appearances before being recalled by his parent club.
Travers has played for Ireland from under-15 to under-19 youth levels, and whilst a member of the under-21 team received his first call-up to the senior national team in March 2019.
He made his first cap for the Republic of Ireland in September 2019 as he ensured a 3-1 victory for his side by starting between the sticks.
Travers has since gone on to make another two appearances for the international side.
With Milwall advancing on a deal, it means they will sign a goalkeeper with Premier League experience, as Travers played in 12 league games throughout the 2022-23 campaign, helping Bournemouth to maintain their status in the top division.
