Although it is a short term deal, Shrewsbury have the option to buy the 24-year-old.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Shrewsbury may have only conceded four goals from four games, but the defender has been brought in to sure up the backline.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">What Was Said<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shrewsburytown.com\/news\/2020\/october\/matt-millar-joins-town\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Speaking to the clubs&#8217; official website, Ricketts said<\/a>: \u201cMatt is someone who came to our attention in the very early stages of lockdown.
