Michael Carrick is reportedly poised to be named as the new Middlesbrough head coach. The former Manchester United midfielder enjoyed 12 years at the top with the Reds, lifting five Premier League titles and a Champions League trophy among many other pieces of silverware.
The 41-year-old briefly enjoyed a short term as United caretaker boss after the dismissal of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November. He remained undefeated in his three games, masterminding wins over Arsenal and Villarreal, also earning a respectable draw with Chelsea.
He left his post, and the club, when Ralf Rangnick arrived as interim boss towards the end of November. Middlesbrough sacked Chris Wilder in October after a horrendous start to the season.
