Tony Mowbray has been hired as the new manager of League Championship club Middlesbrough.
The former Celtic and West Bromwich Albion manager replaces Gordon Strachan, who resigned from the post on Oct. 18 following the team's poor start to the season.
The 46-year-old Mowbray, who captained Middlesbrough during a nine-year spell at the club between 1982-91, also succeeded Strachan at Celtic 16 months ago.
Middlesbrough started this season among the favorites to be promoted to the Premier League but is currently in the second tier's relegation zone, on 11 points from 13 matches.
