Championship side Leeds United have confirmed that their 29-year-old striker Steve Morison will join Millwall on loan for the whole of the 2013/14 campaign.
Morison spent two seasons with the Lions from 2009 to 2011 and played a pivotal role in the club’s promotion from League One to the Championship during his first season at The Den, scoring his 23rd goal of the 2009/10 campaign in the club’s match against Huddersfield Town in the League One play-off semi-final.
Morison also has Premier League experience, having played for Norwich City from 2011 to 2013, where he scored a total 10 goals in 53 league appearances.
The 29-year-old centre-forward then moved to Leeds in January as part of a cash-cum-player deal Norwich struck in return for Luciano Becchio.

"I am looking to reshape my squad for the new season and there was an offer on the table for Steve to go to a club that he has already played at", Leeds manager Brian McDermott told his club’s official site.
"He’s there for a year and he will be playing games, and due to the terms of the deal he can’t play against us", the manager added.
Morison’s contract with his parent club is set to last until 2016.
