The former Chelsea player returned to England in January to join Boro in the Championship after a spell in China with Tianjin TEDA.

However, the Nigeria international’s deal at the Riverside expires at the end of June and ESPN FC believe he will return to the Premier League.

"There are some options right now, and a few more we expect to see over the coming days," the source said.

"Once all the options are on the table, he will make a decision."

"He will most likely make the decision before the finals, although that will depend on what is on the table," the source added.
