Reports from Africa claim Middlesbrough have offered a trial to Ghana international Emmanuel Agyeman Badu.

The 21-year-old is currently plying his trade with local side Berekum Arsenals.

Ghana radio station Happy FM say that Boro spotted Badu whilst playing for Ghana against Australia in Sydney earlier this year.

Swiss giants Basel offered Badu a trial last month, but injury prevented him travelling.

But now he is fit again and is readying himself to travel to England to try his luck with Boro.
