Thomas Tuchel will officially start as England's manager on January 1, 2025. Until then, Lee Carsley will continue to lead the team during the upcoming Nations League matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland. Tuchel was appointed after Gareth Southgate's departure following the Euro 2024 final. The Football Association decided that Carsley would complete the Nations League campaign, allowing Tuchel to focus on preparing for the 2026 World Cup. Carsley is set to announce the squad for the upcoming matches on November 7. England needs to avoid defeat against Greece to maintain their chances of automatic promotion to League A.
