Dublin-born wing-back joins Irish contingent at Championship newcomers

Peter Kioso has left Luton to sign for Rotherham.

Updated at 12.13

LUTON WING-BACK Peter Kioso has joined Sky Bet Championship rivals Rotherham for an undisclosed fee, the Millers have announced.

The 22-year-old, who helped the Hatters reach the play-offs last season, has signed a three-year deal subject to EFL and FA ratification.

Born in Dublin to Congolese parents, Kioso began his professional career at Hartlepool before sealing a move to Luton in January 2020.

He spent the first half of last season on loan at League One MK Dons, but returned to Kenilworth Road in January and made 15 appearances during the second half of the campaign.

The youngster becomes the fourth Irish player in Rotherham’s first-team squad, joining Chiedozie Ogbene, Joshua Kayode and Georgie Kelly.

    The offload to earls and the pat on the back before he’s even scored is class. He’s is a rich vein of form at the moment.

    @Bungee Aky: yawn…. very original. He wouldn’t start for Ireland if Toner and Ryan are fit and if Henderson was fit he would be on the bench. Otherwise Beirne would cover second row.

    There is a pecking order and it has nothing to do with club my good man. You knew that though.

    P.s, didn’t Schmidt give Holland his first Ireland cap?
