A fee of around £4million plus extras could work for both.

Cresswell, 20, has been left out of the Lions side lately but has made 16 Championship appearances this season.

Boro see him as a long-term investment while Sunderland would take him on loan.

Cresswell has attracted interest from a variety of clubs in his short career.

Manchester United and Liverpool showed an interest in the defender after he broke into the Leeds first-team last season.

Cresswell played seven times for Leeds in 2021-22 before dislocating his shoulder.

Norwich were reported to be keeping tabs on the youngster a few weeks ago as they chase promotion to the Premier League.

Leeds boss Jesse Marsch is a fan of Cresswell and wants him to get games under his belt.
