Mahoney completes Barnsley loan move

Connor Mahoney has joined Sky Bet Championship side Barnsley on loan for the remainder of the season.

The young winger, who initially joined the Cherries from Blackburn Rovers last summer, has featured in two Carabao Cup ties so far this season.

And Mahoney will now link up with Barnsley for the season’s run in.

The Tykes, under the guidance of Paul Heckingbottom, currently sit in 19th position in the Championship standings.

Mahoney could be in line to make his Barnsley debut in the weekend’s game away at Queens Park Rangers.
