Middlesbrough FC has officially appointed Rob Edwards as their new head coach on a three-year deal following the dismissal of Michael Carrick after failing to reach the Championship play-offs. Edwards, 42, has previously led Forest Green Rovers and Luton Town to promotion, showcasing his coaching capabilities despite his last spell at Luton ending in January, just before potential relegation. He expressed excitement for the opportunity, emphasizing the club's significant fanbase and his eagerness to start with the support of an available and forward-thinking owner.
"It's a real privilege to be given the opportunity to be head coach of this great football club. It's something that's not lost on me, how big this is, how important this is, and what it means to people."
"Rob is someone who I've been aware of for a long time and I've followed his development as a coach closely. He made history at Forest Green Rovers, and to win promotion to the Premier League with Luton Town was a fantastic achievement."
