Parlour may waive testimonial to move

RAY Parlour is prepared to consider giving up all rights to a lucrative Arsenal testimonial if Premiership rivals Middlesbrough make a satisfactory offer to sign him.

Boro boss Steve McClaren has admitted his interest in the midfielder, 31, who is in the last year of his contract at Highbury - his 12th season in the first-team squad.

But Parlour wants a three-year deal at the Riverside and the guarantee of first-team football, which he has no chance of being promised by the star-studded Gunners.
