Championship side Millwall have signed prolific striker Macaulay Langstaff from Notts County for an undisclosed fee.
The 27-year-old scored 71 goals in 96 appearances for the Magpies, including 42 in 47 matches in their National League promotion-winning campaign in 2022-23.
Langstaff has been the division's top scorer in each of his past three seasons with Notts and previous club Gateshead, winning the League Two golden boot with 28 goals last term in his first ever English Football League campaign.
He becomes the first summer signing at The Den after penning a "long-term" contract,, external although the Lions have not disclosed the length of the deal.
"When you see the facilities at Millwall, it makes me work even harder because I know where I came from and where I want to get to, so I want to put 110% effort in every single day," he told the club website., external
Langstaff set a National League scoring record and earned the nickname the 'non-league Haaland' as Notts won promotion back to the EFL via the play-offs two seasons ago.
His total of 42 also set a new goals record for a Notts player in a single season.
He began his career at Gateshead and moved back there in 2020 after two years with York, scoring 31 goals in 53 league appearances in his second spell with the Heed to earn a switch to Meadow Lane.
In May, he told BBC East Midlands Today his ambition was to help fire the Magpies up to League One, having three years remaining on his contract, and said it would take "something incredible" for him to leave the club.
