Transfer Window: Barnsley sign midfielder Liam Lawrence

Barnsley have signed former Stoke City midfielder Liam Lawrence on a deal until the end of the season.

The 32-year-old former Republic of Ireland international was a free agent after leaving Greek side PAOK Salonika.

He told the club website: "It's going to be a good experience. Hopefully I can bring something to the team that will help us survive this year."

Lawrence could make his debut for the struggling Tykes against Blackpool on Saturday.
