Frontman links up with Rotherham United for the rest of the season.

Derby County forward Conor Sammon has joined Sky Bet Championship outfit Rotherham United on loan for the rest of the season.

The 28-year-old has joined the Millers following the mutual termination of his season-long loan deal at Ipswich Town, which he signed last August.

Under the terms of the loan agreement, Sammon will not be eligible to face the Rams in the away fixture at Rotherham next month.

The Dublin-born striker was a regular at Derby in 2012/13 following his arrival from Wigan Athletic, but he found opportunities few and far between last time around.

He was restricted to just five starts in all competitions during 2013/14, as well as 36 outings off the bench.

Sammon has made 89 appearances for Derby in total, scoring on 13 occasions.
