Charlton’s dearth of midfielders has made it necessary for the Addicks to recall Albie Morgan from Ebbsfleet United.  

Already missing Jonny Williams, Sam Field, Jake Forster-Caskey and George Lapslie through injury, Lee Bowyer will also be without the suspended Darren Pratley for Saturday’s game with Cardiff at The Valley.

Morgan burst onto the scene in the second half‎ of last season. An all action player who is not afraid to take responsibility, Morgan will relish the opportunity to impress Lee Bowyer again.

Bowyer wanted to get some competitive minutes – ideally at League One level- into the talented youngster.

The plan was to bring him back in January but events have dictated an early recall.
