Boro must be patient
Middlesbrough are having to remain patient in their pursuit of Frenchman Didier Digard, after hitting a major snag.
The furious 21-year-old has blasted current club Paris St Germain for stalling over a five million Euro deal - around £4million - which was thrashed out in principle a fortnight ago.
Digard has revealed the stumbling block is PSG's insistence that the fee be paid up front rather than in two instalments.
He told L'Equipe: "The story is simple. Middlesbrough are going to pay the five million Euros asked for by Paris St Germain.
"Normally, a transfer is paid in two instalments - so Middlesbrough pay 2.5million Euros now and the other half later.
"But Paris need liquid assets. Paris want the five million euros immediately, so I am irritated.
"It has taken too long. I am trying to meet up with the board, but they aren't daring to make a decision.
"Quite simply, they are all incompetent."
