Boro update: Middlesbrough making Michael Carrick sack decision

According to sources who spoke to Football Insider, Middlesbrough will decide within the next week whether to fire Michael Carrick.

The team’s failure to qualify for the Championship play-offs in the just concluded season has put the former Manchester United player’s career on Teesside in serious jeopardy.

Following the team’s failure to return to the Premier League, club executives are assessing the manager’s job.

Since taking over in October 2022, Carrick has been the manager of Boro. Last summer, he agreed to a new three-year contract that will keep him there until the summer of 2027.

The former England midfielder has failed to secure a play-off spot over the last two seasons, despite the support of chairman Steve Gibson.
