Kieran Scott is leaving Norwich City's recruitment staff for Middlesbrough.

The Pink'Un reports Scott is set to leave Norwich City to join Middlesbrough as a sporting director.

Fresh reports on Monday morning suggested the Championship club had agreed terms with Scott, who has been a key figure in the Canaries' recruitment set up headed by sporting director Stuart Webber.

Scott is expected to seal his move to the north-east once the current summer window closes. However, the Canaries have been working on a succession plan and have no interest to bring in a direct replacement from outside the club.
