Hellberg delivers update on new signing

Middlesbrough fans may have to wait to see their latest signing in action after Kim Hellberg gave an update on when Ashley Phillips could make his Boro debut.

The centre-back was snapped up in a deal from Tottenham Hotspur earlier this month and has been working hard on the training ground to reach full fitness. However, Hellberg believes Phillips will not feature in the Carabao Cup tie at Doncaster Rovers on Tuesday night and is still 'a bit away' from being available.

After initially responding to a question over Phillips' possible debut with 'far', the Boro boss expanded by saying: "I don't think [Doncaster], maybe next Saturday. He's a bit away."
