Thomas Tuchel believes he can lead England to a victorious World Cup this summer in what he hopes will be the first of multiple successes with the national team after signing a surprise contract extension.
The fresh deal means Tuchel will stay in charge until after Euro 2028, which England will co-host, barring an unexpected change in fortunes. It puts to bed speculation that he could be tempted by a high-profile club vacancy and provides all parties with certainty before their tilt at football’s biggest prize begins in June.
