Middlesbrough have confirmed the signing of Oxford United man Marvin Johnson on a three-year deal in an announcement on the club’s official website.

The 26-year-old, who has been given the number 21 shirt at the Riverside, only joined Oxford United last year from Scottish club Motherwell but his impressive season during the 2016/17 campaign caught the eye of Garry Monk.
