"I have known of the interest for a couple of transfer windows, and it's great to now get a deal done," Iversen told the club website.

"This feels like the right time for me to come here, work hard to earn my place in the team and show what I can do.

"I really like the Championship, the atmosphere the fans create at every game and the relentless nature of the matches.

"I believe my experience playing in the Premier League last season, while in tough circumstances, has benefitted me and made me a better goalkeeper.

"We'll take one game at a time, but the clear objective is to help the team climb the table and finish as high as we can."

Technical director Ricky Martin added: "We have been tracking Daniel since January of last year, prior to him making his Premier League debut for Leicester City.

"He has gained a variety of experiences across all four divisions, including a successful spell in the Championship with Preston and his introduction to top-flight football last season.

"When we learned of Daniel's availability, we were quick to act as we believe he is a high-quality addition to our goalkeeping group and someone who can help us climb the table during the second half of the campaign.

"Whilst a permanent transfer for a keeper was of course under consideration, the most important factor was to bring in the best available player.

"We will be able to assess the situation again during the next transfer window in the summer once Daniel's loan has come to an end."
