Middlesbrough are moving for Nottingham Forest striker Britt Assombalonga.

The Daily Mail says Assombalonga, 24, is valued at around £10 million having scored 30 goals in 47 Championship starts for Forest.

Burnley are also being linked with the striker.

Assombalonga's 14 goals last season after coming back from a serious knee injury helped keep Forest in the division, and Boro boss Garry Monk wants tried and trusted players at Championship level to win promotion.
