After the Swede and the Italian, it was the turn of an expert from a country that has been particularly valued in recent years when it comes to coaching.

The German Thomas Tuchel is the new selector of the England national team, the media from the Island announced and emphasized that this news will be confirmed at the press conference tomorrow.

The expert from Bavaria became the third foreign coach of "proud Albion" after Sven-Goran Eriksson and Fabio Capello.

The BBC previously wrote that the negotiations are at an advanced stage, but that nothing official will be announced today.

The same source stated that before Tuchel, the English FA wanted to try to hire Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, but neither the club nor the Association wanted to comment on such allegations.

Tuchel left Bayern Munich at the end of the season even though he still had a year left on his contract - however, the ruling was that the Bavarians were not the champions of Germany for the first time since 2012.

He previously managed Mainz, Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, and with the London Blues he was European champion three years ago.

On the England bench, which is full of great masters and superstars, he succeeded Lee Carsley, the interim coach, who "stepped in" after the departure of Gareth Southgate.
