Bournemouth are pushing ahead with their attempt to sign Middlesbrough winger Marcus Tavernier.

According to The Athletic, the 23-year-old is set to sign for the newly promoted Premier League club in the coming days.

The two clubs have agreed an initial fee of £10 million, but they are ironing out the add-ons of the total package.

Tavernier was key for Boro last term, playing 44 games and scoring 10 goals in the Championship.

The Cherries will be hoping that his quality can give them a leg up in their push to avoid relegation this term.
