Boro eye Steinsson move

Middlesbrough manager Gareth Southgate has confirmed that he is looking at signing AZ Alkmaar defender Gretar Steinsson.
Southgate is keen to bring a new right-back to the Riverside Stadium and the 25-year-old Iceland international fits the bill.
"He's one of a number of players we've watched but we haven't got any bids in as yet for anyone in that position," said the Boro boss.
"Having lost Abel Xavier and Stuart Parnaby, right-back is certainly one position we're looking at because Tony McMahon is still recovering from a broken leg.
"We've got young players we can look at in pre-season. But we'd like a bit of experience there and we need competition for places everywhere."
However, Southgate has revealed that there is no chance of Gokdeniz Karadeniz or Geremi arriving at the club this summer.
