Barnsley have signed left-back Cole Kpekawa from Championship rivals Queens Park Rangers.

The 20-year-old joins on a three-year deal after the Reds paid an undisclosed fee. The England under 20 international, who can also play in central defence, will provide competition for current first choice left-back Aidy White. 

Kpekawa played nine games for the Hoops, including once in the Premier League, and also spent time on loan at Colchester United, Portsmouth and Leyton Orient.
