West Bromwich Albion’s Hal Robson-Kanu is reportedly on Middlesbrough’s radar.
The Express & Star reported on Thursday that Middlesbrough had turned down a loan offer from Championship rivals West Brom for the 29-year-old, who can operate as a winger or as a forward.
Sky Sports have claimed that Boro are still hoping that the can secure the services of the Welshman on loan.
The report, though, has stated that a move is looking increasingly unlikely as the Baggies will allow the former Reading man to leave only if they can get a replacement.
Good signing for Middlesbrough?
Robson-Kanu is a versatile footballer, and the Welshman’s experience of playing in the Championship will be of help to Middlesbrough in their quest to finish in the top two of the Championship this season.
However, with West Brom also aiming to challenge for the automatic promotion places, the Baggies may not want to strengthen a key rival by loaning out one of their players.
