Blackburn striker Maceo Rigters has joined Barnsley on loan, skysports.com understands.

The former Dutch Under-21 international has penned a loan deal at Oakwell.

Rigters will now make his Tykes debut in the season opener at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.

Rigters has seen his chances limited at Blackburn since joining from NAC Breda last summer and new boss Paul Ince is keen for him to gain regular first-team football.

The 24-year-old had a short spell on loan at Norwich last season.
