Middlesbrough have brought in winger Amario Cozier-Duberry and Scotland midfielder Connor Barron on loan for the rest of the season.

Barron heads to the Riverside from Rangers while Cozier-Duberry makes the move from Brighton and Hove Albion.

The 24-year-old Barron has played 85 games in his two years with the Light Blues, but he has only featured in the Conference League this season under Derek McInnes.

Cozier-Duberry has signed a new three-year contract with the Premier League side and made his first appearance for them in the Conference League last month, but he will spend the rest of the campaign in the Championship.

The 21-year-old starred for Bolton Wanderers in League One last season with nine goals and 10 assists in 37 games as he helped them win promotion, while he was also named in the PFA League One Team of the Year.

These two take it up to 12 signings of a busy summer for Boro, who are currently sixth and play Burnley away on Wednesday night (20:00 BST).
