Middlesbrough Names Rob Edwards as New Head Coach

Middlesbrough have appointed ex-Luton Town manager Rob Edwards as their new head coach. Edwards, 42, moves to the Riverside Stadium on a three-year deal as the replacement for Michael Carrick, who was dismissed earlier this month. He led Luton to the Premier League in 2023 but could not avoid relegation from the top flight 12 months later and was then dismissed by the Hatters in January when they were 20th in the Championship. His job is now to improve a Boro team who ended last season in 10th place, four points outside the play-off spots.

\"It's a real privilege to be given the opportunity to be head coach of this great football club,\" Edwards told the club website. \"It's something that's not lost on me, how big this is, how important this is, and what it means to people. There is an amazing fanbase.\"
