Middlesbrough have appointed Kim Hellberg as their new head coach. The 37-year-old who had been in charge of Swedish side Hammarby, replaces Rob Edwards, who left for Premier League strugglers Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier this month. This is a first job for Hellberg outside his native Sweden, although he had been in talks with Championship rivals Swansea City earlier this month. Hellberg will take over officially later in the week, with Adi Viveash remaining in interim charge for the home game with Championship leaders Coventry City
