Middlesbrough winger Harry Chapman has joined Sky Bet League 1 side Barnsley on loan until the end of the season.

The highly-rated 18-year-old has featured regularly for Boro's U21s side this season and also played a part in the U19s UEFA Youth League run that ended with defeat to Paris Saint-Germain this week.

Chapman, who was named U21 Player of the Month for November and has featured for England U18s, is yet to feature in Middlesbrough's first team and will now be given the opportunity to secure some first team experience at Oakwell.
