Middlesbrough have officially signed former Leeds United defender Sam Byram, their ninth summer signing. The 32-year-old rejected a contract extension at Elland Road and joined Boro as a free agent. Byram made only one Premier League appearance and had a few cup games for Leeds last season. The full-back brings significant experience to the Riverside club, having played over 200 Championship matches and 60 in the Premier League.
At 24, Byram is the oldest of Boro's summer signings. Upon signing, Byram expressed excitement about joining Middlesbrough, a club he is familiar with from playing against them on numerous occasions. He described the club as "great" and a "big club." Byram emphasized his awareness of the intense nature of the Premier League and the need for experience and quality to contribute to the team's success.
