Boro Likely To Sign Duo

Boro Likely To Sign Duo

Middlesbrough FC are considering a move for MFK Kosice duo Nemanja Matic and Juraj Hovancik.

The pair have made a big impression at Rockliffe Park and Malcolm Crosby has not ruled out a double swoop.

"We've had these two lads here over the last few days and they both look decent players, but we will need a bit more time before we make any decisions," Crosby told mfc.co.uk.

"I've been impressed with Matic. He's a good footballer, a big, tall boy and he looks a good player

"It will now give us an opportunity to see him at international level, which will be better for us, although wether the lad plays or not is another thing."

"Hovancik is a younger lad who has impressed me greatly. I like him very much and think all the coaching staff have been impressed.

"He's got a lovely attitude for a young player and he looks like a good prospect.

"We will have to make decisions on them soon and it will all depend on how much the club (Kosice) want for these players.

But up to now I have been pleased and you would have to seriously look at signing them.
