Middlesbrough have entered talks to sign striker Kelechi Iheanacho and winger Samuel Iling-Junior on loan until the end of the season.
Iheanacho, 28, left Leicester in the summer to join Spanish club Sevilla but has struggled to make an impact and has yet to score in La Liga.
Iling-Junior, 21, has also been a bit-part player while on loan at Bologna in Italy, having made the summer move from Juventus to Aston Villa in a swap deal involving midfielder Douglas Luiz.
The England Under-21 international was in Chelsea's academy before moving to Juventus in 2020.
