Barnsley have made winger Lloyd Isgrove their seventh summer signing after his release from Southampton.

Isgrove spent the 2015/16 season on loan at Oakwell and made 27 appearances as part of the squad that secured promotion to the Sky Bet Championship, scoring one of their goals in the Wembley play-off final win over Millwall.

The 24-year-old returned to the Premier League side last season but only made two appearances, one each in the FA Cup and EFL Cup.

Barnsley head coach Paul Heckingbottom said: "Lloyd is a great lad and we are all glad to see him back at the Club for both personality and footballing reasons.

"He fitted into the group here so well last time, knows the place and is a fans favourite. Once we knew there was a possibility of this deal happening, it was a no brainer.

"Lloyd expressed his desire to come back here and has turned down other good offers across the Championship, which shows his hunger to do well here and that's exactly what we need."
