Middlesbrough set to sign French midfielder

French trialist Malaury Martin should sign a deal with Middlesbrough by the weekend.

The 22-year-old midfielder has impressed manager Tony Mowbray sufficiently in practice games to earn himself the opportunity of a one-year contract at the Riverside.

"We`re getting pretty close," Mowbray told the Evening Gazette. "We`re looking at bringing him in on a one-year deal.

"He can do a bit of everything, he could be a useful addition to our midfield," the Boro boss added. "He can pass, tackle, defend and he has a great shot on him, so we`ll try and utilise his talents as we move on depending on whether we can finalise the deal."

And should that proceed as expected, Martin would then link up with the Boro squad in Slovenia on Saturday.
