Tom Thorpe has signed for Rotherham

Sunday 5th July 2015

Rotherham boss Steve Evans believes the signing of Tom Thorpe is a real coup.


The 22-year-old central defender put pen to paper on a two-year deal with the Millers on Friday following his release from Manchester United, where he was tipped to excel.

Evans said of his sixth summer signing: "This is a young man that I have targeted since the first day he was released by Manchester United.

"There is no secret within the Millers that I tried to take young Tom on loan on a number of occasions last season, but at that time we couldn't make it happen.
