He joined Moors in 2021 and was part of the team who lost the 2021-22 National League play-off final in a season which saw him score 23 goals.

Glasgow-born Dallas, the fourth senior signing of the summer at Oakwell, said: "I'm buzzing to finally be in the door and to get to work straight away.

"I have no doubt Barnsley is the right place to be, it's an exciting time to be joining this massive club.

"I also share the heartbreak of a late play-off defeat which makes me hungrier than ever to put it right this season and take this club forward."

Barnsley chief executive officer Khaled El-Ahmad added: “We are pleased to be able to bring Andrew to Oakwell after beating off competition from several other clubs in the EFL.

“We look forward to seeing Andrew begin work with the coaching staff and we wish him the best of luck during his time at Oakwell.”
