Billy Paynter joins Sheffield United on loan

Doncaster Rovers frontman Billy Paynter joins Sheffield United on loan until the end of the season.

Sheffield United have completed the signing of Doncaster Rovers striker Billy Paynter on loan until the end of the season.

The 29-year-old, who joined Doncaster from Leeds United in 2012, has scored once in 12 appearances this term.

"Billy is a proven striker at this level and he gives us additional options with a busy period of fixtures ahead," Sheffield United boss Nigel Clough told the South Yorkshire Times.

"He is cup-tied but available for the league games and will be able to share the load with Chris Porter."

Paynter could make his Blades debut against Notts County on Saturday.
