George Miller has left Middlesbrough and signed for Barnsley for £200,000, while their England U19 striker Stephen Walker has joined MK Dons on loan.
Miller, who is yet to make his Boro debut, has joined the Tykes on a permanent deal after a loan spell at fellow Sky Bet League One side Bradford, where he has scored three and assisted seven in 26 games this season.
Walker, meanwhile, links up with Sky Bet League Two high-flyers MK Dons on a deal until the end of the season after signing a four-and-a-half-year contract with Boro yesterday.
"It's an exciting move. I'm buzzing to get it done, it's a move I am really pleased with," Miller told Barnsley's official website.
"Bradford have been my priority this season. I've tried to give it everything there but when a club like Barnsley come in for you, it is really, really exciting."
MK Dons manager Paul Tisdale, speaking about new signing Walker, told his club's official website: "We've spoken in-depth with Middlesbrough about him and they are more than happy for us to take him on loan so he can continue his development with us.
"We are looking for some more energy and drive in our front line and Stephen will do that. I think he will be a very exciting addition to our squad for the remainder of the season."
