Former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has been named England’s boss by the Football Association on Wednesday. The German manager will take charge on January 1 and till then interim coach Lee Carsley will help the team prepare for the next month’s UEFA Nations League doubleheader against Greece and Republic of Ireland.

Tuchel has all the experience of coaching clubs like Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich in the past and he will look to make the most of it

Tuchel said in a statement: “I am very proud to have been given the honour of leading the England team.

“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’s new assistant will be Anthony Barry and he will look to get the best out of the Three Lions with him.

Tuchel said: “Working closely with Anthony as my assistant coach, we will do everything we can to make England successful and the supporters proud. I want to thank the FA, in particular Mark and John, for their trust and I am looking forward to starting our journey together.”

Tuchel has the experience of working with English players like Reece James, Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount at Chelsea and also coached captain Harry Kane at Bayern Munich.

FA chief executive Mark Bullingham is delighted to have Thomas on board.

“We are thrilled to have hired Thomas Tuchel, one of the best coaches in the world, and Anthony Barry who is one of the best English coaches to support him,” Bullingham said.

“Our recruitment process has been very thorough. Before the Euros, we had a contingency plan and outlined exactly the qualities we would be looking for in a coach.

“Since Gareth resigned, we have worked through the candidate pool, meeting a number of coaches and evaluating them against that criteria.
