For England, reports suggest that Tuchel is in talks to replace Gareth Southgate as manager after the team’s recent struggles under interim boss Lee Carsley, highlighted by a 2-1 defeat to Greece. Tuchel, who has previously succeeded at Chelsea, could bring his tactical expertise to a national team in need of rejuvenation, especially with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon.
Meanwhile, Manchester United’s current performance under Erik ten Hag has been under scrutiny after a slow start to the season. The club had considered Tuchel as a replacement during the summer, but decided to give Ten Hag more time. However, with the possibility of Tuchel taking the England job, United may miss the chance to hire him, something that could impact their long-term plans.
If Tuchel takes the England job, it could also affect players like Mason Mount, who thrived under his guidance at Chelsea, further intertwining the futures of both England and Manchester United. There isn’t any agreement yet from either of the sides.
