Thomas Tuchel, the former coach of Chelsea and Bayern Munich, has officially signed a contract to become the new manager of the England national team. The 51-year-old German manager has been without a job since departing from Bayern in the summer. He will be taking over from Gareth Southgate, who stepped down after England’s loss to Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
Tuchel is no stranger to success, having led Chelsea to a Champions League triumph in 2021. However, he was sacked the following year despite his previous accomplishments. This new role as England’s manager marks a significant milestone for Tuchel, as he becomes the first non-English manager since Fabio Capello in 2012. He joins the ranks of only two other non-English managers, including Capello and Sven-Goran Eriksson.
