French midfielder Samy Mawene has left the club after his contract and registration with The Lions was cancelled by mutual consent.

The 22-year-old was one of former manager Nigel Spackman's many signings last summer and despite impressing during his debut against Gillingham in the Carling Cup he failed to secure a place in Millwall's first-team squad and made a total of just seven appearances.

Lions boss Willie Donachie revealed that the former Caen player wasn't happy at the club during last week's Fans' Forum and that he was likely to depart before long.
