Villans and Boro agree Downing deal
It is understand the two clubs have struck a deal which could see the 24-year-old midfielder leave his home-town club for Martin O'Neill's side.
Downing is currently recovering from foot surgery which is likely to sideline him until October at the earliest, but has been promised by chairman Steve Gibson that he can leave if a big club comes in at the right price.
