The 21 year-old Nigerian, who is half owned by Israeli club Macciba Haifa, would cost Boro around £5m, half of which would go to the Israeli club.
Last season he scored 19 goals from 40 starts, including four against the Boro on the last day of the 2003/04 season.The players agent Barry Silkman has revealed that talks between himself and Boro have begun.
If Pompey are resigned to losing their man it would appear that they are already sourcing a replacement in the form of Ricardo Fuller from Preston North End.
