'Boro keen on Charlton striker'

According to various media outlets, Boro are in for a busy few days before the end of January Transfer window.

Having scored 14-goals in all competitions for Charlton this season, Karlan Grant has caught the eye of multiple clubs, with Boro reportedly keen on bringing the striker to the Riverside Stadium.

The 21-year-old is attracting interest from a number of clubs, considering the fact that he would be out of contract at the end of this season.

With the risk that Charlton allow him to leave for free in the summer, they might be tempted to let him go provided a £2 million offer comes this month.

In addition to Boro, who are looking to add a striker to reinforce their push for promotion, fellow Championship side West Brom and Premier League outfit Huddersfield are also reportedly interested in the forward.

Sunderland in for Boro midfielder

It isn’t going to be all incomings at Middlesbrough FC in the remaining days of this transfer window, as Sunderland look to sign 33-year-old Grant Leadbitter.

Leadbitter, who has featured over 200 times for Boro in his career, has fallen down the pecking order this season and is likely to take a pay-cut in order to move to his former club.
