Just now,FA confirmed that Thomas Tuchel will be the new England coach.
They announced the message in their official media,said:We’re delighted to announce that UEFA Champions League winner Thomas Tuchel is the new England senior men’s head coach and will be assisted by internationally renowned English coach Anthony Barry.
Thomas Tuchel: 'It's a huge privilege'
"I am very proud to have been given the honour of leading the England team. I have long had a personal connection with the game in this country and it has given me some incredible moments. The chance to represent England is a huge privilege and the opportunity to work with this special and talented group of players is very exciting.
Working closely with Anthony [Barry] as my assistant coach, we will do everything we can to make England successful and the fans proud. I would like to thank the FA for their confidence and look forward to starting our journey together."
Tuchel will be assisted by England coach Anthony Barry, who is currently assistant manager of Portugal under Roberto Martinez. Tuchel and Barry worked together at Chelsea and Bayern Munich.
Tuchel and Barry will start work on 1 January 2025, ahead of the qualification process for the 2026 World Cup.
The decision to appoint Tuchel and Barry was approved by the FA Board early last week, with Tuchel signing his contract on Tuesday 8 October (interestingly, two days before the defeat to Greece). The announcement was delayed to minimise the distraction around the international camp.
Interim head coach Lee Carsley will remain in charge of England until the end of the Nations League group stage next month, with games away to Greece and at home to the Republic of Ireland. Carsley will then return to the England U-21 side.
