Former Chelsea manager will take over from Lee Carsley as England boss in the new year
Thomas Tuchel has been confirmed as the new England manager. The German is the long-term successor to Gareth Southgate and will take over from Lee Carsley, who has been in interim charge of the national team following Southgate’s resignation from his post in the summer, from January 1st on an 18-month deal.
“I am very proud to have been given the honour of leading the England team,” said Tuchel. “I have long felt a personal connection to the game in this country, and it has given me some incredible moments already. To have 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.”
Tuchel has been out of work since leaving Bayern Munich in May, and therefore did not have to be the subject of a compensation payment, no doubt added to the 51-year-old’s appeal within the FA. Barry, a former Republic of Ireland assistant coach, had been working with the Portugal manager, Roberto Martínez.
