Rotherham United have signed Newcastle United duo James Tavernier and Haris Vuckic on emergency loan deals.

Full-back, Tavernier, 22, has made nine appearances for the Magpies and had a loan stint with Shrewsbury at the start of the season.

Slovenian midfielder Vuckic, 21, missed most of last season with a cruciate ligament injury.

The duo are likely to be included in Rotherham's squad for Saturday's match against Gillingham.
