Career So Far
London-born Miller started his career in English non-league with Isthmian League Premier Division side Carshalton Athletic. He came through the youth ranks at the South London side and made his senior debut in 2013.
In total, he made 161 appearances for Carshalton in his five seasons, playing in the Isthmian Premier, Division One South and South leagues.
In 2018, Carshalton confirmed that their prodigy had agreed terms with Scottish side Hamilton, and shortly after it was announced that an undisclosed fee had been agreed between the two sides.
Miller has featured in three different campaigns for Hamilton. He made six appearances in the 2017/18 season before his best campaign in 2018/19, which produced eight goals in 36 outings across all competitions.
This season, he featured 26 times in total for Hamilton, scoring four times.
While with Carshalton, Miller also spent time in the V9 Academy, set up by Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy.
What Was Said?
Speaking to the club website about his move, Miller said: “It is a big step. It is going to be a challenge for me but I like challenges and it will be a good experience.
“I’m delighted that I’ve been given the opportunity to come and play here.”
He continued: “I’ve met two of the boys in person already and they’ve warned me about how intense it can be but everyone knows it is going to be hard. As long as you’re ready to work hard then I’m sure it will be good.”
The club have also confirmed that they are in discussion with two first-team players, Lewis Price and Billy Jones, about possible extensions to their contracts at the club.
