Middlesbrough became the second club to be relegated from the Premier League this season after they lost 3-0 to Chelsea on Monday night.
Following the result, caretaker boss Steve Agnew said that the North-East club must continue to look forward and fight for promotion in the EFL Championship next season.
"We're absolutely devastated," he said.
"We worked so hard to get back in the Premier League last season.
"To lose tonight and lose our Premier League status is a massive and bitter disappointment.
"Now we have to finish off strongly before a summer of reflection. It's about Middlesbrough Football Club and how we can turn it around next season to get this club back where it belongs."
