Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka is delighted with the arrival of Rudy Gestede from Aston Villa.

Karanka is hoping Gestede's capture from Aston Villa can help increase his side's firepower with the promoted club having managed just 17 goals in 20 league games to date.

He said: "I think he's a really good player for us. He gives us something different, he gives us things that we can't (do) at the moment and I am really pleased because he was here the first day that he could be here.

"I am really pleased because with him, we are adding a good player and a good person."
