Middlesbrough are keen to re-sign Sunderland striker Danny Graham.

The Sunday Sun says the Teessiders are keen to have their former player - who also spent a spell on loan at the Riverside last season - back on a permanent basis.

And after another of Graham's ex-clubs Watford signaled a desire to lure the 28-year-old back to Vicarage Road, Boro are thought to be weighing up a move earlier than originally anticipated.
