A report claims that Middlesbrough striker Patrick Bamford will become a Leeds United player before the end of Tuesday, with a £7m deal having been agreed.

Leeds United will reportedly complete the signing of Patrick Bamford from Middlesbrough in a £7m deal within the next 48 hours.

The two clubs are understood to have agreed on the fee earlier this weekend, which could potentially rise to £10m with add-ons.

According to the Yorkshire Evening Post, the 24-year-old is to undergo a medical with Leeds on Monday ahead of finalising his switch by Tuesday afternoon.

United have been on the lookout for a new striker all summer, with Derby County's Matej Vydra appearing the most likely candidate to fill the void.

After a breakdown in talks with the Czech Republic international over wages, however, Bamford emerged as their next target and Boro were happy to cash in on a player who scored 11 times in 41 Championship outings last time out.
