Middlesbrough interested in Bristol City forward

Middlesbrough have been linked with the 28-year-old Bristol City forward.

Bristol City forward Famara Diedhiou has been linked with a move to Boro.

The 28-year-old has entered the last six months of his contract at Bristol City and it has been reported that Boro are interested in signing him.

The Senegal international striker made 44 appearances last season for the Robins, scoring 14 times.

Diedhiou has had spells at Sochaux, Clermont and Angers SCO before joining Bristol City in June 2017 for a fee of £5.3 million.

When asked about the transfer rumour, Bristol City head coach Dean Holden said "that's just natural when contracts run down."

"There have been tentative enquiries on some of our players."

Mark’s (Bristol City chief executive, Mark Ashton) very experienced at that and he's in talks with Famara and his agent and has good relationships with them.
