Northampton Town have re-signed striker John Marquis from Millwall on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old had his first spell cut short by the Lions two weeks ago and has since appeared once for the Championship side.

He previously played seven games for the Cobblers without scoring.

Marquis had spells with Torquay and Portsmouth earlier this term, with his overall record for the season standing at five goals in 22 games.

"We're delighted to have John back," said Cobblers boss Chris Wilder.

"He gives us a physical presence at the top of the pitch and we were disappointed when he had to go back to play in the Championship."
