Hull City are understood to have accepted a bid from Middlesbrough for Robert Snodgrass.

Boro will spend the remainder of the transfer window trying to push through deals to sign two attacking midfielders.

Along with Snodgrass, the club have made serious bids to sign Stoke star Bojan and Paris Saint Germain’s 23-year-old playmaker Jese Rodriguez.

As things stand, Boro are furthest down the line with Snodgrass.

Hull have accepted a reported £10m bid from Burnley for the Scottish winger, who is odds-on to leave the KCOM Stadium before the window closes.

However, the Gazette understands that Hull have also agreed a deal with Boro and that the player is keen to travel to Teesside to discuss personal terms.

The sticking point could be the fact that Middlesbrough and the Tigers are both battling to stay in the Premier League and, for that reason, City would prefer Snodgrass to join Burnley.

West Ham United have also been chasing the 29-year-old Scot but the Hammers appear to have cooled their interest in the former Leeds and Norwich winger and have turned to other targets.

With both Burnley and Middlesbrough fighting to sign Snodgrass, negotiations could go right up to the 11pm transfer window deadline on January 31.

Boro seem determined to add two attacking midfielders to their squad and that would open the door for Gaston Ramirez to leave, but the club would only be prepared to allow the unsettled Uruguayan to depart if they received a significant offer – and if they land their transfer targets.

Aitor Karanka is a big fan of both Bojan and Jese. Stoke are prepared to let 26-year-old Bojan leave but are in no rush to conclude a deal and want to realise the highest possible fee for the Spanish wideman.

Jese, meanwhile, is expected to leave PSG and clubs in Spain and England have expressed an interest.

It would be a huge coup if Boro could land the powerful and skillful Spaniard, who moved to Paris from Real Madrid in a £21m deal last summer.

The transfer hasn’t gone to plan, however, and Jese could well be tempted to resurrect his career in the Premier League under a manager who knows him well from his time at the Bernabeu, where the Boro boss was Jose Mourinho’s assistant.

Boro’s interest in Snodgrass, Bojan and Jese, coupled with the fact that the club have already signed Patrick Bamford and Rudy Gestede, underlines Steve Gibson’s determination to establish the club as a Premier League force to be reckoned with.
