Huddersfield are ready to try and sign Andy Yiadom from Barnsley once again in the January transfer window.

Yiadom almost joined the Terriers over the summer, but the deal fell through for reasons that were unclear, with speculation from the Huddersfield Examiner that the right-back failed a medical.

As a result the 25-year-old returned to Oakwell, where he has made five appearances in all competitions this season having recently been introduced back into the starting XI by manager Paul Heckingbottom.
Yet Yiadom is still out of contract at the end of the 2017/18 campaign and having rejected previous extension offers, the signing of a new deal looks highly unlikely.

Therefore the Tykes will need to cash-in on the defender in the New Year or face losing him on a free next summer and it’s believed £4m would be enough to tempt them to sell.
Huddersfield believed to still be in the market for an addition on the right side of defence to act as competition for captain Tommy Smith, despite signing Florent Hadergjonaj on loan from Ingolstadt when they failed to land Yiadom.
