Barnsley have made Wycombe Wanderers' 21-year-old defensive midfielder Josh Scowen their second permanent signing of the January transfer window.

He has signed a deal until the summer of 2017 after making exactly 100 appearances for the League Two Wanderers.

Manager Danny Wilson said Scowen was one of the best players in the fourth tier and that he will add 'tenacity' to his midfield. He could make his Reds debut in the South Yorkshire derby at Doncaster tomorrow. 

Scowen is the second permanent signing of 2015 after Milan Lalkovic while the Reds have also brought in loan players George Waring, Ben Pearson and Alex Kiwomya.
