Former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel holds talks with the Football Association about becoming the next England manager.
Lee Carsley was placed in charge on an interim basis "with a view to remaining in the position throughout autumn" while the FA assessed suitable options.
The BBC has been told by two different sources that initial talks have taken place with German Tuchel.Tuchel left Bayern Munich in May, despite still having a year to run on his contract, as the German giants failed to win the Bundesliga title for the first time since 2011-12.
If appointed, Tuchel would become the third non-British permanent manager of the England men's team after Sven-Goran Eriksson and Fabio Capello.
