After finishing 17th in the Championship last year, Middlesbrough have made a considerable amount of progress this season under the guidance of manager Neil Warnock.
Whilst the play-offs are out of reach, the Smoggies will be aiming to clinch a spot in the top-ten by ending the current campaign on a positive note in the coming weeks.
Given that his side are all-but guaranteed to be in the second-tier next season, it is hardly a surprise that Warnock is already looking ahead to the summer transfer window.
According to The Sun, Middlesbrough are reportedly eyeing up a move for Preston North End striker Ched Evans.

An Arnaut Danjuma goal deservedly put Cherries ahead at half-time at Deepdale. But first-half misses came back to haunt the visitors as Preston markedly improved after the restart, eventually levelling through Daniel Johnson and taking a share of the spoils in the 1-1 draw. That result, coupled with a win for Barnsley, sees Cherries slip outside of the Championship play-off places. For the third game in a row, Jonathan Woodgate named an unchanged starting XI. There were three alterations among the substitutes with Jack Wilshere back from suspension while young duo Jordan Zemura and Gavin Kilkenny were also included. Philip Billing, Diego Rico and Christian Saydee missed out.
