What has happened to all 11 players who signed for Middlesbrough under Garry Monk as Britt Assombalonga and Ashley Fletcher depart

It was confirmed last week that Middlesbrough duo Britt Assombalonga and Ashley Fletcher will leave the club at the end of the season – two players who joined Boro in their 2017 summer spending spree.

The Teessiders spent over £50million following their relegation from the Premier League when Garry Monk was appointed at the Riverside.

Boro brought in 11 players during that transfer window in their attempt to return to the top flight, and it’s fair to say the signings have been mixed.

The exits of Assombalonga and Fletcher, who both signed four-year deals when they arrived at Boro, means that Jonny Howson and Marvin Johnson are the only players left at the club who signed when Monk was in charge.

We take a closer look at the other players who joined Boro during that period, including loan deals, and what has happened to them since.

There are 11 players on the list.
