The transfer of Jeremy Sarmiento to Middlesbrough has reportedly reached a breakthrough stage after Brighton gave the green light to the move and accepted a formal offer. While personal terms and contract length are yet to be agreed - it is looking increasingly likely that the interested team is about to get one of their top transfer targets signed and sealed. Until a fee and conditions are finalised, the deal remains vulnerable to disruption - especially if Cremonese decide to make a formal offer of their own in the coming days. Middlesbrough have been strong going forward this season, with 73 goals scored in 48 games (1.52 per game). Jeremy Sarmiento would give them depth and keep that attacking firepower going all season. Brighton have recently been linked with Liam Delap, Patrick Wimmer and Charlie Cresswell while Middlesbrough have had no rumoured targets.
