Barnsley will add on-loan Newcastle striker Ivan Toney to their squad for the home game against Scunthorpe following his return to the club.

Toney, recalled early by Newcastle from a previous loan spell at Oakwell at the end of last year, could go straight into their starting line-up.

Manager Paul Heckingbottom, who has no new injury or suspension worries, could involve defender Aidy White, who has returned to full training after an ankle injury.

Striker Marley Watkins (calf) and defender James Bree (hamstring) are still out while midfielder Lloyd Isgrove (Wales), striker Ashley Fletcher (England Under-20s) and defender Callum Connolly (England Under-19s) are all unavailable.

Graham Alexander takes charge of Scunthorpe for the first time following his appointment as Mark Robins' permanent successor earlier this week.

The new manager will have close to a full squad available but midfielder Sean McAllister is doubtful with an ankle problem.

Defender Scott Wiseman remains on the long-term casualty list following an operation to remove a bone growth and will not play again this season.
