The 20 - year - old central defender traveled to Teesside on Friday to discuss terms with the Championship outfit.
And if all parties agree, in all likelihood, he will undergo a medical before his unveiling in the next 72 hours.
The imminent transfer of Kenneth Omeruo to Boro will be sweet music to the ears of Super Eagles gaffer Stephen Keshi, who had advised Omeruo to get some matches under his belt before the start of the World Cup.
Leeds United had courted the highly rated starlet but his priority was to move to the Riverside Stadium to join Aitor Karanka’s army.
Middlesbrough occupy the 15th position in the standings after 24 games played.
