CONFIRMED: Martyn Waghorn signs for Derby

Middlesbrough's pursuit of Martyn Waghorn reaches new heights. Numerous reports indicating a 83% probability of the striker making the switch to his potential new club. Here is why.

Middlesbrough has often bought players who are approximately the same age as the current age of Martyn Waghorn (35).
Martyn Waghorn is in a favorable situation regarding potential playing time, as there are only a limited number of direct competitors for his position within the current Middlesbrough squad. This significantly increases his chances to prove himself and become a key player on the field.
The absence of key players at Middlesbrough who play in the same position as Martyn Waghorn increases his chances of playing a significant role in the short term and allows him to establish himself as a valuable asset in Middlesbrough's squad.

Transfer Logic score:

Pros

Comparable age to previously attracted players
Few direct competitors for position (Marcus Forss, Josh Coburn)
Missing star player in position on team
Few better competitors for position (Marcus Forss, Sam Greenwood)
Comparable quality to previously attracted players

Cons
