Emmanuel Ledesma: Rotherham sign Middlesbrough forward

Emmanuel Ledesma started his career at Italian Seria A side Napoli

Rotherham have signed forward Emmanuel Ledesma on emergency loan from Championship rivals Middlesbrough.

The 26-year-old Argentine arrived at the Riverside on a three-year deal in August 2012, after a spell at Walsall.

He has made 64 appearances for Boro, 27 of them coming as a substitute, and has scored nine goals.

Ledesma is available to make his Rotherham debut in Saturday's Championship game with Birmingham City at the New York Stadium.

He began his career at Genoa and also played for QPR on loan, before joining Walsall permanently in March 2011.
