Former Manchester United coach Mike Phelan is being linked with Middlesbrough.
Boro have named Michael Carrick as new manager today.
The Sun says the ex-England anchorman wants Phelan to join as his No2.
United will not block their former assistant from making the move to the Riverside.
Carrick could also move for another former Red Devil in Rene Meulensteen.
But he is currently preparing for the World Cup as Australia's assistant manager.
