The football world in England is in an uproar—Thomas Tuchel is set to become the new manager of the England national football team! The former Chelsea coach, who won the Champions League with the club three years ago, has agreed to all terms and will soon take charge of the Three Lions, the British Times reported under the “exclusive” label. According to the report, the official announcement is expected by the end of the week.It’s official: Kylian Mbappe accepts Real Madrid’s KSh24 billion bidTuchel will become the legitimate successor to Gareth Southgate and the first German coach to take charge of England. This also means that Lee Carsley’s temporary stint will soon come to an end; Carsley had left his position as the coach of the England U21 team while a permanent solution for Southgate was being found. The Football Association deliberated for a long time and ultimately chose the man who brought Chelsea its last major successes. Carsley’s downfall was the defeat to Greece in the Nations League, as well as unconvincing performances against Ireland and Finland. However, there are reports that Carsley will remain in charge for the November Nations League matches.Carsley hasn’t applied for England jobThe German coach has been without a job since parting ways with Bayern Munich at the end of last season. His appointment was strongly pushed by the FA’s general director Mark Bullingham, along with technical director John McDermott. They believed Tuchel was the ideal solution for one of Europe’s and the world’s leading national teams, considering he is not only a successful coach but also in high demand among top clubs. Among others, Manchester United had shown interest in him.When Gareth was away on sabbaticalTuchel allegedly opened the door to the possibility of taking on a national team role as early as July, though an agreement couldn’t be reached at that time. Now, however, the deal has been struck. Other British media outlets are slightly more cautious, stating that key discussions between Tuchel and the FA are still expected during the week, but it seems almost certain that he will become the new England manager. In the national team, Tuchel will work with Harry Kane, whose insistence brought him to Munich just over a year ago.##NAJAVA_MECA_8414753##
