Career

Millen made his Dunfermline debut against Hamilton on 2 February 2013,[2] having played for the Dunfermline U20s team alongside team-mate Shaun Byrne. After the Pars went into administration, Millen featured regularly in the first-team, and scored his first goal for the club, a penalty, against Forfar in the First Division play-offs on 11 May 2013.[3] Millen scored the winner in a 1–0 victory over rivals Raith in a Scottish League Cup match on Tuesday 5 August 2014. His other three goals all came from the penalty spot against Brechin, Forfar & Greenock.

After leaving Dunfermline at the end of the 2014–15 season, Millen signed for Scottish Championship side Livingston in July 2015.[4] Millen stayed with the side for only six months, leaving in January 2016 in order to seek regular first-team football.[5] Shortly after leaving Livingston, Millen signed a six-month contract with Clyde who he previously played for as a youth player.[6] At the end of his contract, Millen was released by the Cumbernauld side.[7] At the beginning of July 2016, Millen was signed by Scottish League Two side Queen's Park, with whom his father Andy Millen finished his playing career with.[8]

Millen signed a six-month deal with Kilmarnock in July 2018. He stayed at the club for just under 3 years before letting his contract expire in June 2021.[9]

On 6 July 2021, Millen joined League Two side Scunthorpe United, signing a two-year deal following his release from Kilmarnock.[10]
