Barnsley have announced the loan signing of Amine Bassi on loan from French side FC Metz until the end of the season.

The 24-year-old forward has made five league appearances for Metz this season but has yet to score a goal.

The new signing told Barnsley’s website: “This will be a new, challenging experience and I’m very happy to be part of this club.

“I like to think of myself as an offensive player; I like to score and to make other players score, so what you can expect from me is I will try to be incisive in games.”
