Ben Gibson has penned a new four-year deal with Middlesbrough, the club have confirmed.
Mowbray is pleased with how Gibson has performed during his loan spells, especially his time with Tranmere. "It augurs well for Ben. He's done extremely well at Tranmere and who's to say they won't be in this league next year?" he said. "In the group we have Andre Bikey, Jonathan Woodgate and Seb Hines, who are all more experienced. "But at some time in the next year or two Ben Gibson is going to be knocking on the door of the first team. "He's a very, very mature young guy who's very focused and knows what he wants from his career."
