The former Atalanta frontman scored his 11th goal in 12 league games and took his overall tally to 18 in his first season at the Riverside as he set Boro on their way to their 3-1 victory over Watford.
Latte Lath won the Championship’s Player of the Month award for April after hitting seven goals in six, and Carrick is excited by what the Ivorian can produce next term.
“We’ve hoped and known the potential he had and his strengths and attributes,” said Carrick.
“He’s had a really incredible patch in terms of scoring and there’s no reason he can’t build on that going into next year.”
Boro failed to win any of their first seven this season, but finished with just one defeat in 12 to finish eighth, just four points shy of the play-off places.
