Barnsley have signed Crystal Palace full-back Jack Hunt on a three-month loan deal.

The 23-year-old is yet to feature for the Eagles since joining from Huddersfield last August after suffering a broken ankle in training.

Hunt made 104 league appearances for the Terriers before his move to Selhurst Park.

He arrives after Liverpool defender Ryan McLaughlin saw his loan with the Tykes curtailed by a hamstring injury.

"I feel so sorry for Ryan and he's absolutely gutted," said manager Danny Wilson.

"Maybe we can revisit it in the future but we just can't gamble at the moment, which is why we've brought Jack in."
