Dane Murphy, Barnsley FC's Chief Executive Officer spoke on the acquisition. 

“Most of the club's work was completed early in this window, but we're ecstatic to get a player of Daryl's calibre into the squad. He has had a rapid rise in his career over the last two years showing he possesses a tonne of talent. The club believe he will undoubtedly prove a real asset between now and May.

“It has been well documented that Valérien wanted to strengthen his forward line and in the short-term, this addition goes someway to accomplish that.

“I must thank the group at Orlando City for allowing Daryl to join us and I have no doubt that he will be a success at Oakwell.”
