Millwall have confirmed the signing of Brentford defender Tristan Crama.
The 23-year-old French centre-back is available for tomorrow’s home game against Hull City.
Crama had been on loan at Exeter but was recalled by the Bees earlier this week.

Grecians boss Gary Caldwell has stated his pleasure at the way they have got the player’s career back on an upward trajectory. He told BBC Radio Devon: “I’m obviously disappointed when you lose a player as good as Tristan. But I think we’re all happy for him and we’re all proud of the job we’ve done as a football club, as a staff, as the whole football club in terms of welcoming another loan player in and seeing a young player develop and progress in such a short space of time.
“We can be really proud of that because Tristan was a player that had a fairly difficult loan last year, he didn’t play that much near the end of last season for Bristol Rovers, and here he has flourished and we have given him a platform to show his talent.
“We know how to develop young players, we gave them a brilliant environment and a platform to show their talent and progress their careers.
“Whilst we’re disappointed and we have to obviously replace him, the whole football club should be proud and happy for Tristan that he’s getting a really good move and progressing his career.”
Crama scored four goals in 26 appearances for Exeter.
Millwall have some of their centre-backs – Shaun Hutchinson, Murray Wallace and Wes Harding – all coming out of contract in the summer.
