Details of Tom Bradshaw's Rotherham United deal as hitman signs in
He could be paired with Paul Mullin up front.
New boy Tom Bradshaw could be with Rotherham United for the next two seasons after the club today confirmed the signing of the experienced striker.
The 33-year-old has arrived at AESSEAL New York Stadium on a one-year contract and becomes the club's ninth summer incoming.
The Millers have the option to extend his stay by a further 12 months if he does well in the forthcoming League Two campaign when he will have another new boy, Paul Mullin, as a partner up front.
"To have the experience of Tom and Mulls up top will be huge," said Alex Bruce whose squad concluded their pre-season programme of friendlies with an impressive 1-1 draw against Championship Derby County last night.
Bradshaw, who had been a free agent after parting company with Oxford United at the end of last season, was at the Derby game wearing a Millers tracksuit.
The player came through the ranks with hometown club Shrewsbury, has spent all but one of the last 10 years in the second tier with Barnsley, Millwall and the U's.
He has reached the veteran stage but is renowned for how hard he works on his fitness and should have plenty to offer at League Two level.
In a career of more than 500 appearances, he has bagged 126 goals and had his best spells with Walsall and Millwall.
His presence at New York comes a decade after he was on the verge of joining in Rotherham in a £500,000 switch from Walsall only for Barnsley to steal him away when the deal was on the verge of being announced.
Bruce is delighted to have Bradshaw and Mullin in the building and is planning to further add to his frontline before the close of the transfer window.
"I'd still like more options at the top end of the pitch," he said. "We've got two centre-forwards with those two. Hopefully we can have some more.
"I would like, if I can, to put a bit of youth and a bit of energy up there to help them. That's the aim, let's see if we can do it."
Another recently-signed forward, Fabio Tavares, is seen as more of a wide player on the left than someone who operates down the middle.
Bradshaw hit the target 20 times in 37 games for League One Walsall in 2015/26 and found the net on 44 occasions in 201 outings during a six-year stay with Millwall who paid Barnsley close to £1 million for his services in 2019.
