Albert Adomah asks for move from Middlesbrough after bust-up
Thursday 27 August 2015 13:49, UK
Albert Adomah has handed in a transfer request at Middlesbrough after an alleged bust-up with manager Aitor Karanka, Sky sources understand.
The pair are thought to have clashed in the aftermath of the team's surprise 1-0 Championship defeat to last season's League One winners Bristol City on Saturday.
Adomah, signed from the Ashton Gate side in 2013, came on for the final 28 minutes of the game with his former side at the Riverside Stadium.
After holding talks with Middlesbrough's hierarchy in the last 24 hours, the 27-year-old has now formally request a move elsewhere.
When asked on Thursday afternoon if the player will still be there beyond the transfer deadline on Tuesday, Karanka said: "Of course."
Ghanaian international Adomah has made 98 appearances for Middlesbrough since he arrived there, scoring 18 goals.
