Adam Armstrong Transfer from Southampton to Middlesbrough
Championship clubs are interested in signing Adam Armstrong before the transfer deadline at 7pm on Monday, February 2. Sources at Saints claim they have not yet received a solid offer for Adam Armstrong. According to recent reports, a £15 million valuation was placed on Armstrong by Saints. Unconfirmed rumours suggest second-place Boro are hesitant to pay that.
Reports that Middlesbrough have made a bid for Adam Armstrong are incorrect, and there have been no official offers for the striker. While there have been suggestions of bids for the 28-year-old ranging from £8m to £15m, Boro has not yet made an official offer to the Saints. Boro would be interested if Southampton made Armstrong available and have communicated this, but Boro would only pursue a deal if the financial terms were suitable. It is believed that Adam Armstrong would be open to leaving St Mary’s before the transfer deadline on Monday evening. A transfer to Boro would be a move closer to home for the striker, who is from Newcastle. A potential deal could be complicated because Armstrong is a key player for the Saints, serving as their captain and having scored 11 goals this season. His team is in 15th place, seven points away from the top six.
According to Sports Boom, Middlesbrough have made an eight-figure offer to sign English forward Adam Armstrong from Southampton. The 28-year-old, who has Premier League experience, is also being pursued by Wrexham, Stoke City, and Ipswich Town. Reports indicate that Middlesbrough, who are aiming for promotion, are trying to move ahead of their rivals to secure a deal. The former England U21 international's contract expires in June 2027, and he has scored 4 goals and provided 4 assists in 11 Championship appearances this season. Southampton signed Armstrong from Blackburn Rovers in August 2021 for a reported fee of €17.7 million.
