Boro accept Mido offer

Middlesbrough have confirmed that they have accepted a bid for Egypt international Hossam Mido from an unnamed club. The player is likely to quit the Riverside in the next 7 days.

It is rumoured that Fulham, Sunderland and West Ham are all interested in the frontman, who will be allowed to quit the club for a fee in the region of 5 million GBP.

Mido has spent the last few years in England with Tottenham and Middlesbrough, but is now ready to move to pastures new after Boro's relegation to the Championship.
