Middlesbrough will not be offering deals to trialists Mirko Pieri and Jackson Mendy. The pair, both left-backs, played 45 minutes a piece in the 2-0 friendly win against Sachsen Leipzig on Wednesday night. Boss Gordon Strachan told Boro`s official website: "We don't think we'll be taking either of them." Boro currently have cover at left-back in the shape of Andrew Taylor, Jonathan Grounds and Joe Bennett.
