Thomas Tuchel named England manager
Thomas Tuchel has been appointed England manager from 1 January 2025.
The 51-year-old German becomes the third non-British permanent manager of the men’s team after Sven-Goran Eriksson and Fabio Capello.
Gareth Southgate resigned in July after England’s defeat by Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
Lee Carsley, who was appointed interim manager in August, will remain in charge for the Nations League matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland next month.
English coach Anthony Barry will be Tuchel’s assistant.
The Football Association said Tuchel was the “preferred candidate” from the “several candidates” interviewed.
It said the FA board approved the decision last week and Tuchel signed a contract on 8 October.
“The announcement was delayed to minimise distraction around the international camp that has just concluded,” a statement read.
