Middlesbrough defender Ben Gibson is expected to be on the move this summer.

The Daily Mail says Boro are fighting a losing battle as they try to keep England's newest recruit Gibson.

The defender has been called up by Gareth Southgate as a replacement for Chris Smalling, who pulled out on Friday with an unspecified injury.

Gibson is poised for a big-money switch to one of the Premier League's top-six clubs ahead of next season.

Boro want to keep Gibson, particularly if they stay in the Premier League, but are increasingly resigned to his departure. They will look to secure a fee of at least £25million.

Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham have expressed interest in the 24-year-old.

Chelsea have also extensively scouted Gibson this season.
