Rotherham have swooped to sign versatile defender Zeki Fryers on loan from Premier League side Crystal Palace.

The 22-year-old has been included in the Millers' squad for the home game against league leaders Bournemouth on Saturday along with Conor Sammon, who signed a loan deal from Derby on Thursday.
