Tuchel committed to England: German coach to stay beyond 2026 World Cup

Thomas Tuchel will not step down as England head coach after the 2026 World Cup. Despite a semifinal exit at the tournament, the German tactician will continue leading the national team, with his contract running through the home European Championship in 2028. “The World Cup isn’t over for us yet – we have a third-place match ahead. After that, we keep working. My deal runs until Euro 2028, and I’m really looking forward to that tournament, even if it’s hard to focus on it right now,” said the 51-year-old. According to ESPN, the Football Association retains full confidence in Tuchel. He is expected to oversee England’s preparations for the 2028 Euros, which will be co-hosted by England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland.
