Potter, Howe, Pochettino, Klopp, Tuchel and Guardiola are potential successors to Southgate

As of today, Gareth Shugate is a thing of the past on the England bench.

Two days after losing the Euro 2024 final to Spain, the English coach, despite the federation’s desire to keep him until 2026, decided to resign and his successor has already been named.

Southgate, who sat on the bench for 102 games, has won 61 and lost 17. He lost at Euro 2020 and Euro 2024 while leading England to fourth place at the 2018 World Cup.

England won the 1966 World Cup on home soil and before Southgate’s time they had to show a fourth-place finish at the 1990 World Cup. Southgate is gone and the question is who will take over. Sky Sports has named Eddie Howe, Mauricio Pochettino, Graham Potter and Lee Carsley as possible successors. Even before Southgate announced his decision, The Times had Howe in the picture.

The BBC in its article about the successor mentions the four names of Sky Sports and adds Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel. And in the list of names are the easier cases, the unemployed and those out of reach.

But the last non-English manager of the Three Lions was Fabio Capello (Italy, 2008-12), while the previous one was Sven-Goran Eriksson (Sweden, 2001-06). However, it is difficult for the FA to choose a non-English player.

Names

Pep Guardiola, after a brilliant spell at Barcelona, ​​has become the reformer of Manchester City. He has been in England since 2016 and has won 6 Premier League titles and one Champions League with the “Citizens”.

Many of City’s players are also members of the England national team, and he now knows the English mentality and wants well, but the Catalan has a contract until 2025 with City and it seems unlikely that he will break it… and it is difficult to work together with England and City.

England are looking to qualify for the 2026 World Cup and cannot wait for Pep. Jurgen Klopp is also a tough case. He left Liverpool a few months ago to rest and think about his future career.

His name for the England team had been heard before, as well as for the German team. A few days ago he also wrote about the US national team. He has not opened his papers yet, and if he sticks to his decision to take some time off, it is difficult to see him on the bench in England.

The other two unemployed are Mauricio Pochettino and Thomas Tuchel. The Argentine, who lives permanently in London, was recently sacked by Chelsea after spells at Southampton and Tottenham. He is out of work, as is the German who won the Champions League with Chelsea but underperformed in his last move from Bayern Munich. However, in England he is seen as a major outsider for the position.

the Lee Carsley He is English, the England U21 coach, and in 2023 led the team to the top of Europe. Before moving to the men’s national team in 2016, Shoojit was in the U21 team for 3 years. The 50-year-old received an offer from Ireland but chose to stay in the U21 team to get the big break at some point. He has served in the academies of City, Brentford and Coventry.

The most prominent as a successor seems to be Eddie Howe. He is also a favourite with the bookmakers. The 46-year-old is Newcastle manager as of 2021, while he has had successful spells at Bournemouth and Burnley.

He is under contract with Newcastle until 2027 and the BBC reports he is high on the FA’s shortlist. However, the club’s chief executive has indicated they are very happy with Eddie and want to continue the journey with him.

Another Englishman case is Graham Potter. Along with Howe, they are the favourites. He did a great job for three years at Brighton but failed at Chelsea and was quickly sacked. He has been approached by Ajax and Leicester City and has refused to talk.

He would like to succeed Southgate. But he has been out of a job since 2023. He is an easy case and would not turn down an offer.
