Steve Round

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steve Round (born November 9, 1970 in Burton upon Trent) is a football coach and ex-player, currently on the coaching staff of the England national team and Middlesbrough F.C. As a player, Round was a full-back with Derby County, before being forced to retire early through injury after only nine league appearances. He joined the club's coaching staff, and it was here that he first worked with future England manager Steve McClaren. When McClaren was appointed Middlesbrough manager in 2001, he appointed Round to his coaching staff, where he has been ever since. McClaren was named as England head coach in 2006, and one of his first moves was to appoint Steve Round to his backroom staff. Round will continue with Middlesbrough in a dual role.
