Middlesbrough have appointed former Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder as their new manager.
The Championship side parted company with Neil Warnock on Saturday but have acted quickly to bring in the 54-year-old, who will be joined by assistant manager Alan Knill.
The four-time promotion winner has managed more than 1,000 games across his career and joins Boro 'with immediate effect' and could take training as early as Tuesday.
Wilder joins the North East side in 14th, comfortably mid-table - ten points off the relegation zone and just four points off the play-offs in a congested middle section of the Championship.
