Stuttgart are set to trump Premiership interest for Middlesbrough striker Tuncay Sanli.

The Daily Mail says Stuttgart have made a £9million move for Middlesbrough striker Tuncay.

The Turkey international has attracted interest from Aston Villa, Tottenham, Everton and Liverpool but the Bundesliga side are prepared to offer Middlesbrough's asking price for the 27-year-old.

Villa have offered £6m and Everton and Tottenham were looking at around £5m. The one thing in their favour is that Tuncay wants to stay in the Premier League. He has turned down interest from former club Fenerbahce but Stuttgart's move will prove difficult to resist for all involved.
