WANDERERS are close to completing a loan move for young Benfica midfielder Rochinha, manager Neil Lennon has revealed.

The 19-year-old playmaker, whose full name is Diogo Filipe Costa Rocha, starred for the Portuguese side's reserve team in last season's UEFA Youth League but is yet to make the breakthrough as a first-team regular.

Once a deal is completed, Rochinha will stay with Wanderers until the end of the season.

Meanwhile, Lennon also confirmed at his pre-Rotherham press conference that Emile Heskey will have a scan today on a hamstring injury picked up in Saturday's goalless FA Cup draw at Liverpool and could be sidelined for a couple of weeks.
