Middlesbrough confirm the appointment of former Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis as their manager to succeed Garry Monk.

Middlesbrough have confirmed the appointment of former Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis as their new head coach.

The 59-year-old, whose career in the game spans 25 years, was sacked by the Baggies in November after a run of 10 Premier League games without a victory.

Pulis, who replaces Garry Monk, will watch Boro's Boxing Day home Championship game against Bolton Wanderers from the stands, with Craig Liddle taking caretaker charge.

"I wanted a challenge - a real challenge - and this reminds me so much of Stoke when I went there with Peter Coates," Pulis told reporters.

"I wanted to come at this time because we have so many games in a short space of time, and I can assess everything."

Middlesbrough, who currently sit ninth in the Championship table, have not disclosed the length of Pulis's contract.
