Rochdale seal Matthew Barnes-Homer loan

Barnes-Homer is an England C international

Rochdale have completed a deal to sign Luton Town striker Matthew Barnes-Homer on loan until 16 January.

The 23-year-old, who has made one appearance this season, has scored 20 times in 70 league games since joining the Hatters from Kidderminster in 2009.

He netted 18 times last season, one short of his best tally of 19 for the Harriers two years earlier.

"I'm happy to be here and I'm looking forward to the challenge," he told the club website.

"I believe Steve Eyre had been keeping an eye on me for a while and as I'm not playing at Luton Town it was a good opportunity for both parties.

"I'm here until January and I know I have to work hard to get into the team and I'm sure the way Rochdale play will suit my style."
