Middlesbrough have appointed former Aston Villa caretaker Aaron Danks as first-team coach.

The 39-year-old led the Premier League side for two games in October following the sacking of Steven Gerrard.

He has previously worked in West Brom's academy, with England Under-17s and U21s and as assistant manager to Vincent Kompany at Anderlecht.

Danks joins former Boro players Jonathan Woodgate and Grant Leadbitter on boss Michael Carrick's staff.
