Middlesbrough are the latest team to join the race to sign Newcastle striker Dwight Gayle this summer.
According to The Daily Star, via Sky Sports, Middlesbrough are interested in a deal to sign Gayle ahead of next season.
The report claims that Middlesbrough are eyeing a swoop for Gayle to spearhead their attack as they aim to be promoted from the Championship.
Norwich and Aston Villa have both been linked with a move for Gayle, with both sides playing in the Premier League next season – the former going up as champions and the latter winning the play-offs.
Gayle spent the season on loan to West Brom from Newcastle, where he was able to score 24 times for the Baggies in the league – an impressive return.
Norwich will need to strengthen their squad ahead of their Premier League season and competition for top goalscorer Teemu Pukki looks to be on the cards.
