Bruno Fernandes backed Michael Carrick to become a "top coach" after the former England international left Manchester United's backroom staff last December.
Carrick, 41, was finally confirmed as the new manager of Championship side Middlesbrough on Monday following days of speculation. It's the ex-midfielder's first permanent job in management after a spell as United's caretaker boss before Ralf Rangnick's arrival.
Carrick briefly succeeded Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Old Trafford last November and did well during his three-game stint, picking up seven points against Arsenal, Villarreal and Chelsea. One player he did impress was Fernandes, who thanked Carrick for his work.
