Writing on Twitter after his move, Fry said: "Absolutely delighted to sign on loan for Rotherham!! Can't wait to get started!! Also happy to sign a new 5-year deal with Boro"

Fry has been with the Boro setup since the age of seven and also has 10 caps for the England Under-19s side, as well as five caps at Under-18 level.

Rotherham are currently 22nd in the Championship after a return of just four points from their opening five fixtures.
