Watch: Aitor Karanka on Patrick Bamford and tonight's game at Bolton


Read three facts about Patrick Bamford


Aitor Karanka has said that Patrick Bamford can be a good player for Boro - if a loan deal for the Chelsea player goes through.


"I hope he can be (a Boro player) but it's not in my hands," the Boro head coach told the club's YouTube channel. "It's with him."


"He can be a very good player for us because we just have Kike as striker but, at the moment, he's not my player."


As reported on GazetteLive yesterday , Patrick Bamford has been at Rockliffe Park for further talks about a potential loan deal.


The striker is not in the squad for tonight's trip to Bolton - but could make his debut on Saturday at home to Sheffield Wednesday.


Karanka has also said that he is not expecting a repeat of Boro's visit to Bolton last season.


The visitors took a two-goal lead but ended up hanging on for a 2-2 draw on New2 Year's Day.
