Izzet hints at move to Boro

Muzzy Izzet was so swept up in the emotion of his winning Leicester farewell that he could not quite bear the thought of ending his six-year career at the relegated club.

The midfielder was in fine form as Leicester's 111-year stay at Filbert Street ended with a victory over Tottenham.

Izzet hinted that Middlesbrough may prove to be his new destination, saying: 'I will speak to Steve McClaren (Boro's manager) now the season's finished. He made me a great offer.'

Goals from Paul Dickov and Matthew Piper helped inflict defeat on Spurs, who had gone ahead through Teddy Sheringham's penalty.
