The BBC reported on the 4th (Korea time) "Middlesbrough replaced director Michael Carrick. Carrick led the team for about two and a half years," he reported.
Carrick first began his official coaching career in October 2022 when he took over as Middlesbrough manager of the English Football League Championship. The team advanced to the playoffs in the 2022-2023 season, but failed to reach the top six for the second consecutive season.
Middlesbrough spent most of the 2024-2025 season in playoff contention, but lost its chance with just one win in its last six games. There was a chance of reaching the top six until the final match, but he ended the season in 10th place after losing to Coventry.
Carrick started his leadership career as a coach at Manchester United after retiring as a player. During his active career, he had an excellent career of winning five English Premier League titles.

Carrick immediately reversed the team's mood, jumping to the top, eventually leading the team to the playoffs for the first time in five years but losing in the semifinals.
In the following year, he was only 8th (6th and 4 points) in the Premier League promotion competition.
Middlesbrough's replacement of Carrick was done with caution.
Many fans believed Carrick would continue as manager, but the club are said to have carried out various reviews behind the scenes.
Attention is also focusing on who will come as Carrick's successor coach. Middlesbrough has not risen again since being relegated from the Premier League in the 2016-2017 season. Fans are desperate to be promoted to the Premier League under the new manager system.
