Current England Manager

We now know that Thomas Tuchel will be the next England manager. The 51-year-old German becomes the third foreign manager of the national team after Sven Goran Eriksson (2001-2006) and Fabio Capello (2007-2012). Tuchel has managed six clubs since being appointed at FC Augsburg in 2007, including PSG, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich. His most outstanding achievement came when the West London club won the Champions League in 2021. His time at both of his other marquee appointments could have been more successful, especially his most recent position, where Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich dispensed with his services after just fourteen months.

Next England Manager Betting Odds

Despite a contract running to December 2024, Gareth Southgate departed his position on 16 July that year after guiding the team to the Euro 2024 final against Spain. 

The speculation and betting on the next England manager continued, with the best betting sites initially favouring former Brighton and Chelsea manager Graham Potter and current Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe, but in the end, the FA plumped for Thomas Tuchel. He will lead the country into the 2026 World Cup and replaced interim boss  Lee Carsley. The bookmakers will have all the next England manager's odds if another change occurs.

Another Non-English Manager Of England?
Three non-English managers have been in charge of the national team: Sven Goran Eriksson (2001-2006), Fabio Capello (2008-2012), and now Thomas Tuchel (2024-Present Day). Capello had a better win strike rate of 66.7% compared to Eriksson's 59.7%. It must be hoped that Thomas Tuchel can exceed those percentages.

Best Betting Site for Next England Manager Betting

There is a huge range of UK Bookmakers to choose from but only very few that offer next-manager betting, if at all - As we have covered every club management change over the seasons, looking for betting odds on who the next club manager will be, we have found the following betting sites to be the most reliable and quickest to get odds up for the next manager at most clubs.

There are instances when these odds might not be readily available for certain vacancys. This could be because the position has only recently been filled, the club is currently performing exceptionally well, or the club has a strong history of standing by its manager through thick and thin. 

Additionally, in some cases, the England manager's position might be vacant, but there are strong indications or even rumours about the potential replacement. Despite these unique circumstances, it is worth noting that if betting odds do become available, we will present them here in this section for your convenience. Regular updates related to the manager's position can also be found in the dedicated sports betting news section expertly managed by Jake Ashton. So, keep an eye out for any developments as we strive to keep you informed on the latest happenings in the football managerial landscape.

England Manager Candidates

A list of the potential candidates should the job become available today based on people appearing in the betting odds, to others who have a profile that would fit the country in terms of the last few national team managers they have had.

Mauricio Pochettino

Since 2009, when he first took charge of Spanish club Espanyol, Mauricio Pochettino's managerial career has been mixed.  

He has coached Southampton, Tottenham, PSG, and Chelsea, each with varying degrees of success.

His biggest achievement came at PSG where he guided The Parisians to the Ligue 1 title in 2022. 

Graham Potter

Another of the "new breed" of managers noted for their football intelligence and tactical nous. 

Potter started his managerial life at Ostersund in Sweden. From there, he further built his reputation at Swansea and  Brighton before landing at Stamford Bridge in September 2022 under new Blues owner Todd Boehly. 

Expectations were high for Potter and the management team he had brought from Brighton, but results started badly and never got any better. (PL31 W12 D8 L11). 

In April 2023, he left Stamford Bridge. Had he flourished in West London, then the  England job may have been a shoo-in, but there were rumblings that he could not manage the dressing room of the " multiple highly paid Chelsea stars", which could be a consideration if he is interviewed for the top job in English football.

Eddie Howe

Another front-runner for the England manager position is Eddie Howe. 

The former Bournemouth and  Burnley boss is now managing a Newcastle United majority owned by the Sovereign Wealth Fund of Saudi Arabia. Their riches have allowed Howe to shop for the best players in the world, and a fourth-place EPL finish in 2023 is a testament to this. 

However, the pressure rises with that investment, and Howe's team would be expected to bring some silverware to St James Park. If he can bring the first trophy back to St James Park since 2006, then his England chances may well be enhanced.

Jurgen Klopp

Having left Liverpool at the end of the 2023/24 season, stating that "he was running out of energy," he became head of football at Red Bull. Their teams include RB Leipzig in Germany and Salzburg in Austria.

 

Sean Dyche

The current Everton manager is renowned for his organised and pragmatic teams.

 At Burnley, he showed his football management prowess by keeping the cash-poor Clarets in the EPL season after season. Many football purists baulked at Sam Allardyce when he was appointed England manager, and we could see the same reaction were Sean Dyche to be selected. 

However, he has been towards the head of the next England betting, so the bookies like him, and if the FA decision-makers who appointed Allardyce are still in place, then it would not be a massive shock if the gruff-voiced Dyche was appointed.

Lee Carsley

Like Gareth Southgate before him, Carsley was named interim England manager. 

He took charge charge of the Nations League matches against Ireland and Finland before Tuchel was appointed.  

Steven Gerrard

The former Liverpool and England midfielder has managed three clubs since hanging up his boots. Glasgow Rangers, Aston Villa and his latest position in Saudi Arabian managing Al-Ettifaq. 

He is expected to be offered a job back in England at some time, with Liverpool seemingly in pole position. 

He may be offered a role somewhere in the England setup, such was his contribution to the England cause in his playing days, but he is currently not one of the front runners to be appointed the next manager.

Brendan Rodgers

Has managed clubs in England, Scotland, and Wales and played for a team in Northern Ireland.

Currently back in Scotland, where he is again managing Celtic.

Frank Lampard

In a similar position to his England midfield colleague Steven Gerrard, his managerial standing has been knocked by poor results and being let go by clubs. 

Lampard has been in charge of Chelsea, Derby County, and Everton, but none of those jobs have lasted longer than eighteen months.

Pep Guardiola

As one of the most successful club managers of all time, it would be tough for the FA to turn him down if he applied.

He knows the pressure of the England position, but having managed some of the biggest clubs in Europe, he has the tactical knowledge and experience to bring something unique to how England play the beautiful game.

Steve Cooper 

 The underestimated former Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper was appointed as the new Leicester City manager in June 2024. He is familiar with the England setup, having managed the national sides at under 16 and 17 levels. 


Sarina Wiegman

The England Women's National team manager has not put a foot wrong either in team selection or in how she handles the media. 

We suspect there will be many advocates for the Dutch-born Wiegman to get the role alongside those who would be vehemently against it.

Walter Winterbottom was in the job for 14 years, and Sir Alf Ramsey for 11 years. 

The youngest appointee was Walter Winterbottom who was just 33, followed by Glenn Hoddle who was 39. 

The oldest appointee was Roy Hodgson who was 65 when he got the England job.

The average age of being appointed is just over 50.

The average number of games a manager is in charge for is 52.


England Flag

The shortest tenure for a permanent England manager was that of Big Sam Allardyce who only managed the team for 1 game before being dismissed.

Steve Mclaren the "wally with the brolly" lasted just 18 games before  Fabio Capello was appointed. 

Capello is the most successful England manager when it comes to a winning percentage of England games. 

The Italian had a record of 28 wins from 42 games (67%). 

The worst-performing manager was Kevin Keegan who only managed 7 wins from 18 games (39%).
