Barnsley will complete the signing of striker Tommy Wright from Championship outfit Leicester City tomorrow.
Wright who was on loan with Blackpool this season scored for the Seasiders in the dramatic 2-2 at Oakwell back in October and also gave Paul Reid a bit of a rough ride.
The deal taking Wright to Oakwell is expected to cost up to £50,000 depending on appearances.
Wright scored 6 goals in 15 appearances for Blackpool whilst failing to score in 11 appearances for the Foxes, although only 3 of these appearances were starts.
Wright was paraded in front of the Oakwell faithful at half-time during the clash with Huddersfield on New Years Eve and will be available to play at Saltergate when The Reds play Chesterfield on Monday 2nd January 2006
