Boro target Villa striker !

Middlesbrough are set to make an approach for Aston Villa striker Luke Moore in the January transfer window according to reports in the Daily Star today.

Moore is currently out of favour at the Midlands club with the presence of Gabriel Agbonlahor and Jon Carew in the side. Both strikers, especially Agbonlahor have performed well so far this season.

The pacy striker is yet to sign a new deal at the club but it is believed that Villa boss Martin O'Neill does want the Moore to stay at the club despite rumours linking Spurs striker, Jermain Defoe to Villa.

I personally feel that a move to Boro would be a positive one for the career of Moore. I think that he has bags of unused talent, which would be shown by playing first team football week in week out.
