Middlesbrough are reportedly interested in Everton’s Yannick Bolasie.

Middlesbrough manager Tony Pulis has told the club’s official website that he does not plan to sign Yannick Bolasie from Everton in the January transfer window.

Bolasie has returned to Everton after cutting short his loan spell at Aston Villa, as the winger himself posted on his Instagram page.

According to The Daily Mail, Middlesbrough in the Championship are an option for the 29-year-old winger.

Pulis, though, has said that he does not plan to recruit the DR Congo international this month.

“Yannick is not coming here, we’ve not spoken to him,” Pulis told Middlesbrough’s official website. “We’ve got other things moving, and we’re desperately keen to add players at the front of the pitch.”

What now for Yannick Bolasie?

Everton manager Marco Silva has suggested to Sky Sports that Bolasie could be sent out on loan in the January transfer window.

It is hard to see the winger break into Silva’s plan for the second half of the season, and perhaps a loan move away will be best for the former Crystal Palace winger.

Now that Bolasie is fully fit and has been playing for Villa, the winger will be a good signing for a club in the Premier League in the January transfer window.
