3 players who Middlesbrough should offload in January, including Micah Hamilton

Writing for The72, James Ray argues that Championship promotion contenders Middlesbrough should streamline manager Kim Hellberg's squad by offloading three players during the January transfer window. Ray highlights George Edmundson, Law McCabe, and Micah Hamilton as candidates who would benefit from departures, whether permanently or on loan, to gain regular playing time and allow Boro to pursue new signings.

Ray recommends that Middlesbrough seek a permanent winter exit for Edmundson ahead of his contract expiry in 2027. He also suggests a loan move for 20-year-old midfielder McCabe, while arguing that winger Hamilton may be best served by a permanent transfer away from the Riverside Stadium following summer squad additions.
