Championship outfit Middlesbrough are said to be interested in signing Morten Rasmussen on loan from Celtic. The Danish striker hasn’t quite been able to establish himself since his multi million pound switch to Parkhead and has already undergone loan spells at Mainz and Aalborg.
Despite the summer window being closed, the loan window still remains open for lower league clubs in England, and Boro, being in the Championship, are eligible to take players on loan.
Rasmussen has scored only three goals for Celtic since his move from Brondby in January 2010 on a three and a half year contract. Mainz had the option to secure his services on a permanent basis but they chose not to exercise the option, thus leading the Bhoys to loan him to Aalborg.
