TEAMtalk can reveal that Boro boss Carrick has held talks over a possible deal to bring the former Everton and Chelsea midfielder back to England this summer

The midfielder was recently presented as a Nice player and has now gone into detail about why they are the right next club for him after Chelsea.

A few days after ripping up his Chelsea contract, the midfielder has found a new club outside the Premier League - where there are a few familiar faces.

The playmaker made 100 Chelsea appearances and scored 12 goals following his switch from Everton in January 2018.

The Blues are open to selling all six flops, and their inability to find buyers has already had a tangible impact on the club's rising stars.

Chelsea are seeking a double solution involving a familiar face in a key position, while West Ham are getting confident of taking their tally of arrivals up to five and there is good news for Crystal Palace too.
