Lions to do battle with Iran?

Having cancelled their pre-season tour to Australia earlier this week, Millwall are looking to pencil in a couple of high-profile games as part of their preparations for next year's campaign. And the club have revealed that they are in negotiations to bring the Iranian national side to The Den on Saturday, 30th July.

Iran, currently 18th in the FIFA rankings are on the verge of qualifying for the 2006 World Cup in Germany and include Asian Player of the Year Ali Karimi in their ranks.
