Young Right Back In?

Reports this evening have indicated that Boro have had a £2.5 million bid accepted for Charlton Athletic right-back, Luke Young.
Gareth Southgate expressed that, following the signings of Jeremie Aliadiere and Tuncay Sanli, he needed to address the right back position after showing the door to both Stuart Parnaby (Birmingham) and Abel Xavier (LA Galaxy). Luke Young, 28, is an experienced right back with over 200 Charlton appearances to his name in the last 6 years and is expected to meet with Boro imminently to discuss personal terms and to undergo a medical.
Last week, Charlton boss Alan Pardew announced "I've got a lot of time for Luke and I appreciate he wants to play in the Premier League, If a decent club comes in and I thought the fee was right I'd let him go."

Also today, Sky Sports revealed that Boro have made bids for Egyptian stars Emad Moteab (Striker) and Mohamed Shawky (Midfielder). The pair, apparently, will be available at a bargain of £2 million. Moteab, 24, is valued at £1.5 million, whilst fellow Al-Ahly FC star Shawky has been valued at a mere £500,00. However it has been said that Birmingham are also interested in the latter of the two.
Al-Ahly's marketing director told Sky Sports "The club will discuss Middlesbrough's offers during the board meeting next week."
However Boro have expressed that they wish to bring the pair to Teesside on a trial basis before they attempt an official transfer.
If these transfers go through, Boro would be well ahead of many Premiership clubs in terms of summer transfers with 6 players in and still seeking an out-and-out right winger, such a player which has eluded Boro for so many years.
