Middlesbrough sign Manchester City midfielder Bruno Zuculini on short-term deal

Middlesbrough have landed Manchester City starlet Bruno Zuculini on a one-month loan deal.

The 22-year-old completed the formalities on Monday morning prior to taking part in his first training session with the Championship outfit.

Zuculini, an Argentina Under-20s international, joined City in 2014 following a four-year senior stint at Racing Club in his homeland.

With Adam Forshaw currently nursing an injury, plus Grant Leadbitter and Adam Clayton one booking away from suspension, the youngster has been brought in to bolster the North East outfit's midfield ranks.

Zuculini, who has previously spent time on loan at Valencia and Cordoba in La Liga, will remain at the Riverside until November 28.
