Middlesbrough in race to sign Wolves' Richard Stearman

Middlesbrough today emerged as contenders to rival Wolves in the race to sign up Richard Stearman.

Wolves' Richard Stearman has just passed the 200 league appearance mark for the club.

The 26-year-old is out of contract at the end of next month and the Championship rivals have joined Burnley and Celtic in weighing up a move for the Wolverhampton-born stopper after the departure of Jozsef Varga, who plays predominantly right-back.

But Wolves are confident of extending the six-year stay of the Wolverhampton-born stopper after a superb season at centre-half and will be hopeful of matching other offers.
