SKY Confirm: Barnet Strike Agreement with Rotherham United for Reece James
Sky Sports can confirm that Barnet have reached an agreement with Rotherham United for the transfer of experienced left-back Reece James. The 30-year-old defender is set to make the switch to The Hive in a deal that marks a significant coup for the National League side as they prepare for a promotion push.
James, who made over 50 appearances for Rotherham since joining from Doncaster Rovers, brings a wealth of experience across the EFL. Known for his defensive solidity and pinpoint delivery from wide areas, James is expected to become a key figure in Dean Brennan’s squad as Barnet look to bolster their options in both defence and attack.
It is understood that personal terms have already been agreed, and the move will be finalised pending a medical in the coming days. The deal, while undisclosed, is believed to involve a small fee, with James eager for more regular first-team football.
Barnet fans will see this as a strong statement of intent, with James’ pedigree providing an immediate upgrade to the squad. With the National League campaign entering a critical phase, this signing could prove pivotal in their hopes of securing promotion to the Football League.
