  We study the boundary behaviour of the solutions of (E) $-\Delta_p u+|\nabla
u|^q=0$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, when $N\geq p > q >p-1$. We
show the existence of a critical exponent $q_* < p$ such that if $p-1 < q <
q_*$ there exist positive solutions of (E) with an isolated singularity on
$\partial\Omega$ and that these solutions belong to two different classes of
singular solutions. If $q_*\leq q < p$ no such solution exists and actually any
boundary isolated singularity of a positive solution of (E) is removable. We
prove that all the singular positive solutions are classified according the two
types of singular solutions that we have constructed.
