Manchester City wonderkid Sverre Nypan has opened up on his journey in England as he revealed a culture shock following a loan move to Championship side Middlesbrough. The Cityzens beat Manchester United and other top European clubs to complete the signing of the 18-year-old Norwegian midfielder in the summer transfer window from Rosenborg, but he was immediately sent out on loan for more game time.
Manchester United legend Michael Carrick has taken up a new job just three months after parting ways with Middlesbrough. The Riverside club sacked Carrick at the end of the 2024-25 campaign after a 10th-placed finish in the Championship. The ex-United midfielder was initially appointed in 2022 and earned praise for his initial impact but Middlesbrough decided to make a change after failing to make the play-offs in each of the last two seasons.
