Boro’s steep Steele price

JASON STEELE will cost Sunderland £ 3million AND Danny Graham.

Middlesbrough hope to ward off interest from the Black Cats in their highlyrated keeper by putting the steep £ 8m price- tag on the England Under- 21 international.

Sunderland are in the market for a new stopper with regular first choice Simon Mignolet set to join Liverpool for £ 9m.

But if push comes to shove, they want a hefty cash payment plus £ 5mrated former Boro trainee Graham as part of any deal should the Black Cats firm up their interest.
