England has announced its new national team manager after the resignation of Gareth Southgate, who in my opinion was the most successful manager England has ever had.
The new manager is a German, which not many years ago would have been thought impossible given the rivalry that at least the English feel they have with Germany. It is none other than Thomas Tuchel, who also appeared to be one of the favourites alongside Pep Guardiola.
Tuchel has significant experience with clubs, having won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021. Although he won the league titles with both PSG and Bayern Munich, this was not considered enough for these two ambitious clubs.
But managing a national team is a completely different thing than a club, and in particular a side like England, with huge expectations and pressure, but also a long list of talented players. He will be the third foreign manager following Fabio Capello and the recently deceased Sven Goran Eriksson, both who came in with an impressive club record, but disappointed as England managers.
It will be interesting to see what a German can do with England
