Chelsea striker Bamford hopes for Middlesbrough stay

Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford is keen to extend his stay with Middlesbrough.

The England Under-21 international has scored five times in 13 appearances for the Teessiders.

Bamford told the Evening Gazette: "At the moment, I'm only here until the New Year, but I'm keen to stay. I like it here, I like the manager.

"He believes in me, which is important, so I don't think there's any reason for me to go back.

"I've played all along the frontline, but I don't mind that. I've played all those roles so far in my career and I'm comfortable in all of them."
