Tomlin secures permanent Boro deal

Lee Tomlin has signed for Middlsbrough on a permanent basis, according to Sky Sports.

The striker moved to Teeside on loan from League One promotion hopefuls Peterborough United during the January transfer window, but has now put pen to paper on a three-and-a-half year deal with the club.

The 25 year old scored forty-one goals in one-hundred-and-fifty-one games for the Posh following his transfer from Rushden and Diamonds in 2010.

He is yet to make his debut for Aitor Karanka’s side, but he could do so at home to Leeds United on Saturday afternoon after completing a three game ban.

Tomlin was shown a red card in Peterborough’s 5-4 defeat to Oldham Athletic towards the end of January, and has not featured since.

Middlesbrough, who have not managed to score since the 1-0 win over Charlton Athletic a month ago, can be backed at a price of 1/1 to register their first win in six games at the weekend.
