Thomas Tuchel ‘Very Proud’ To Be Named England Manager

Share

Thomas Tuchel has been appointed England manager from January 1, 2025.

The 51-year-old German, who has signed an 18-month contract, 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 overseen four games since being appointed interim manager in August, will remain in charge for the Nations League matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland next month.

Former Chelsea boss Tuchel, who left Bayern Munich at the end of last season, said he is very proud to have been given the honour of leading the England team.
