Rotherham have made Lionel Ainsworth their eighth signing of the summer subject to the winger completing a medical.

Ainsworth, 24, played almost 30 games for Shrewsbury in their promotion from League Two last term before joining Burton Albion on a one-month loan at the end of the season.

Millers boss Steve Evans is delighted to have completed a deal he suggested was unlikely to be completed last week

"I'm glad we've signed Lionel as he's an exciting winger with frightening pace," he said.

"He's a match-winner and someone I look forward to working with.

"We've added something we didn't have, which is a winger who had sheer pace, and any defender will tell you they don't want to play against someone like that."
