Middlesbrough are set to sign Manchester City winger Morgan Rogers, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The 20-year-old winger joined Manchester City’s academy in 2020 from West Bromwich Albion. He predominantly plays on the left-hand side of the attack.
He has had three separate loan spells away from the Premier League champions. The first of which came with Lincoln City in League One, before loan spells at second tier level with Bournemouth and Blackpool in the last two seasons.
During his time in City’s youth ranks, the Englishman scored nine goals and delivered five assists in 37 appearances but failed to feature in a senior game for the club.
Now, it has been claimed that the 20-year-old is facing another departure from the Etihad Stadium, this time on a more permanent basis.
Romano claims there is a permanent deal in place for the 20-year-old winger to join Middlesbrough this summer.
The Italian journalist says it is a “done deal” and that Rogers will sign as early as today.
The paperwork is already in place to be signed and the attacker is currently undergoing a medical at the Riverside.

With a move to Middlesbrough now looking like his next destination, everyone at City will presumably be hoping Rogers can find his feet and become a top player in the second division.
