"The German tactician is delighted to have extended his deal with the England national team, and has explained why he didn't initially commit to a longer contract when he first took over. Tuchel says he didn't want to lose focus on the World Cup, but now feels fully focused and confident in his plans for the tournament, which also enables him to commit his future to beyond that as well."
"The thing that I only signed for 18 months was my wish and I didn't want to lose the focus towards the World Cup. Now, after more than one year in the job, I can say I will not lose the focus. We are very, very clear who we want to nominate, how we want to nominate and how we want to present ourselves in the World Cup. This will now give us clarity that after the World Cup, we will continue,"
"Tuchel has great experience from club football, winning the Champions League during his time at Chelsea, as well as other major titles with elite sides like Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain. On top of that, the 52-year-old has a great record with England so far, winning nine out of his ten games in charge of the Three Lions."
Thomas Tuchel extended his contract with the England national team, committing his future beyond the World Cup. He initially signed for 18 months to avoid losing focus on World Cup preparation and now says he will not lose that focus after more than a year in the job. Tuchel says the squad selection, presentation and nomination processes for the World Cup are clear. The contract extension provides continuity to compete in the Nations League after the tournament. Tuchel brings major club success, including a Champions League win, and has won nine of his ten England matches so far.
