Boro tie up Tuncay deal

Middlesbrough have confirmed the signing of Turkey international Tuncay Sanli on a free transfer from Fenerbahce, subject to a work permit.

The 25-year-old striker has agreed a four-year contract after spending the last two days at Boro’s Rockliffe Park.

Boro chief executive Keith Lamb said: “We’re delighted that Tuncay has committed his future to Middlesbrough.

“He is a major star in Turkey so it is a big coup for us to have signed a player of his quality on a free transfer.”
