Gareth Southgate quit as England boss following the Euro 2024 final and the FA are eyeing a superstar replacement
England football chiefs are mulling over the possibility of naming an interim boss to replace Gareth Southgate as part of an ambitious plan to lure Pep Guardiola into international management.
The same publication hints there's speculation among City's hierarchy about Guardiola possibly vacating his post come next summer, and the FA might play the waiting game as they regard him as an exceptional prospect. Guardiola himself has previously expressed his interest in national team management. Earlier in the year, in a conversation with ESPN, Guardiola confessed: "A national team. I would like to train a national team for a World Cup or a European Championship.
It's been suggested that the FA wouldn't hesitate to appoint an interim manager while they await Guardiola's availability after his tenure at Manchester City, with Under-21's coach Lee Carsley tipped as a potential temporary choice. The FA has a history of such strategies.
