Athletic paid Rotherham United an undisclosed fee to acquire the services of Chris O'Grady in summer 2008.
A striker by trade, the 6'1" frontman began his career with Leicester City, making his debut as a substitute against Grimsby in April 2003.
He was farmed out on loan to Notts County and Rushden & Diamonds before breaking into the Leicester first team at the back end of the 2005/06 season.
O'Grady started the following season in the side but was on his way to South Yorkshire for a fee of £65,000 in January 2007.
He scored 15 times in 56 appearances in total for the Millers, and was the club's joint-top scorer in 2007/08 with 11 strikes.
