Barnsley are hoping their third incoming signing of the January transfer window will be confirmed on Friday.
The Reds are thought to have loaned in a midfielder but the deal is yet to be ratified by the authorities.
It follows the signing of defenders Donovan Pines and Josh Earl.
They were hoping to sign a striker but it did not happen.
The Reds have loaned out a series of players this window including on deadline day when Callum Styles joined Sunderland, with a buy clause, while centre-backs Jack Shepherd and Kacper Lopata have joined League One strugglers Cheltenham and Port Vale until the summer.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
