💔💔💔
We are desperately saddened to report the passing of our former Academy player Anthony Renton.
An inspirational character, Anthony bravely battled leukaemia for almost nine years - and never let it diminish his love of our game.
Anthony was a promising defender and had only recently signed his first professional terms with Boro when he was first diagnosed with leukaemia back in July 2017.
Despite the many challenges and setbacks he faced as a result of his cancer battle, Anthony continued to be a beacon of positivity.
He spent many of his later years in coaching, including some time with our Academy. His dedication to supporting young footballers in their development both on and off the pitch will always be remembered, and leaves a lasting legacy with so many children and their families across Teesside.
Anthony’s commitment was recognised when he was named a hugely deserved first winner of our MFC Academy Alumni Award in March 2026.
Anthony passed away peacefully over the weekend at the age of 27.
Our thoughts go out to Anthony’s family and friends at this devastating time.

Firefighters are at greater risk of cancer because of their exposure to toxic contaminants at work.
Our call for a benefit to support firefighters with cancer in Scotland made the Daily Record front page this week.
All firefighters deserve protection from occupational diseases.
