Fletcher on way in £7 million deal plus sell on!
And we can confirm that the young striker has left the Hammers training ground in Germany to have his medical with the Championship club where he will be reunited with Darren Randolph.
We were told just a few seconds ago that the deal is 90 per cent done and that a sell on clause – to be agreed – has been written into it with our source saying: “It’s very good business for us.”
Fletcher has been tracked by several clubs over the last few weeks but the £7 million fee for him represents an amazing profit on the £1 million which we paid Manchester United on his arrival given his lack of match action.
Despite scoring and providing the assist in the pre-season match against Fulham the Hammers appear to have quickly accepted that this is an offer they can’t refuse from Boro who are spending big in their attempt to return to the Premier League.
