The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">England Football Association (FA) </a>has hit the internet with a blast, putting up a job ad for the next England manager. The job listing was uploaded on the England FA’s official website.&nbsp;



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gareth-southgate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gareth Southgate</a>, left his position right after steering England to yet another almost-win at Euro 2024. Southgate left behind a legacy of near-misses, including two close calls at Euro glory and a memorable World Cup semi-final in 2018, but no silverware to show for it.



In response, the FA is on a mission to find someone who can finally bring home a major trophy for England. Interested parties need only fire off an email to the address provided in the job ad to throw their hat into the ring.



<h2>England looking for new manager online&nbsp;</h2>



Expect the FA’s inbox to swell with hopeful candidates, all convinced they have what it takes to achieve what no England Men’s manager has managed since Sir Alf Ramsey did it back in 1966.

With <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gareth-southgate">Gareth Southgate</a> stepping away as England manager after the loss to Spain at the UEFA Euro 2024 final, Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman has been mentioned as a possible candidate to coach the men’s team.



It all started when the outlet talkSport mentioned the 54-year-old as a name to watch in the English FA’s managerial search, given her track record of success on the international stage in women’s soccer.



Of course, this quickly became a big talking point on social media, as it would be a historic decision by the FA. However, it didn’t take long for the Dutch to deny this rumor, claiming she has no intention of leaving <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england">England</a> Women’s.



“To be honest I think it’s really inappropriate to have that conversation, I’m with the Lionesses, I’m very happy,” Wiegman said on the England men’s job rumors after leading the Lionesses to the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">European Championship</a>, where the team will be looking to defend its 2022 title.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240717_BUS_146930_Sarina-Wiegman-1-1024x576_50fd203f.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Sarina Wiegman, Manager of England, looks on prior to the UEFA Women&apos;s EURO 2025 qualifying match between England and France at St James&apos; Park on May 31, 2024 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England." class="wp-image-146956" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Sarina-Wiegman-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Sarina-Wiegman-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Sarina-Wiegman-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Sarina-Wiegman-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Sarina-Wiegman-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Sarina Wiegman, Manager of England, looks on prior to the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 qualifying match between England and France at St James’ Park on May 31, 2024 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Wiegman heaps praise on Southgate</h2>



“I’m disappointed that he [Southgate] is going to leave. I really like Gareth as a human being but also as a coach. I think it’s really inspirational what he has done, so well, for such a long time with the England team. That’s something to be really, really proud of and it makes England very proud,” Wiegman said about Southgate’s departure.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/uefa-euro/gareth-southgate-resigns-as-england-coach-pep-guardiola-and-other-candidates-to-take-the-job"></div>


Under Southgate, England reached the European Championship final in consecutive editions but failed to get the job done both times. The manager, who was under contract until December 2024, announced Tuesday he’ll be walking away sooner.



“He is such a nice person and a great coach,” Wiegman added. “We wouldn’t see each other all the time but when we would see each other it was very nice. What he has done for England football is really incredible.“



<h2>Sarina Wiegman’s international success</h2>



Wiegman, 54, has made a name for herself in women’s soccer by leading her native Netherlands to continental glory in the UEFA Women’s Euro 2017. She went back-to-back in 2022, but with England Women’s.



The architect of the team’s first European Championship title, Wiegman is under contract with the Lionesses until 2027. Next summer, she will be looking to secure her third consecutive Euro title (second with England) in Switzerland.



<h2>Who will replace Southgate in England?</h2>



Though it looks like we should rule Wiegman out, England still have many options on the table. Mauricio Pochettino, Graham Potter, Eddie Howe, and Ange Postecoglu have all been linked with the opening. Only time will tell who ends up replacing Southgate.

Sarina Wiegman breaks silence on England job as Gareth Southgate leaves after Euro 2024

After <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england">England</a>‘s defeat in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">Euro 2024</a> final, 1-0 against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a>, Gareth Southgate ended his time as coach of the English national team. For the game more than for the results. For not having known how to get the most out of, perhaps, the most talented squad in Europe.&nbsp;



In an official statement, Southgate, who took over in 2016, expressed his deep gratitude for the opportunity to have led the national team: “It has been the honour of my life. I’ve given it everything. But it’s time for a change and a new chapter.”



The coach, who leaves the position after 102 games at the helm of the team, says goodbye with his head held high, highlighting the achievements made during his management: “We led England to two European Championship finals and the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup. I’m very proud of this team.”



<h2>Who are the candidates to manage England?</h2>



After the surprise resignation of Gareth Southgate as manager of the English national team, the English Football Association (FA) already has in mind some possible candidates to replace him. However, a name that is conspicuous by its absence is that of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pep-guardiola">Pep Guardiola</a>, current Manchester City coach.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240716_BUS_146216_Pep-Guardiola-1024x576_b6d8329d.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-146220" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pep-Guardiola-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pep-Guardiola-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pep-Guardiola-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pep-Guardiola-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Pep-Guardiola.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Leah Williamson and Pep Guardiola wave from the Royal Box ahead of the Gentlemen’s Singles third round match between Cameron Norrie of Great Britain and Alexander Zverev of Germany during day six of The Championships Wimbledon 2024 at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 06, 2024 in London, England.

According to The Guardian newspaper, three names are at the top of the list of possible successors to Southgate: Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has won praise for his engaging style of play and ability to develop young talent. Graham Potter, the manager of Brighton &amp; Hove Albion has impressed with his innovative tactical approach and his ability to get the most out of his players. And finally, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/thomas-tuchel">Thomas Tuchel</a>, former Chelsea coach, has extensive experience in European football and has shown that he is capable of winning titles with top teams.



Apart from the names mentioned above, and as reported by Sky Sport, Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino is also among the candidates to replace Southgate in England. The English Football Association is reportedly considering his name to take over as manager of the England national team.



<h2>The dream with Guardiola</h2>



Guardiola has not hidden that he is curious to manage a national team and in England he would have a real team to be able to shape it. In addition, he knows a good part of the players since he has faced them or, some, he has them in the same team. On the other hand, the Daily Mail claimed that Guardiola was the FA’s great dream to lead the English national team after the European Championship, when Southgate was contemplating leaving.



It should be noted that Guardiola, who has a contract with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/manchester-city">Manchester City</a> until June 2025, does not seem to be a viable option for the FA at the moment. The next few hours could be decisive for the future of the English national team. The FA is expected to announce a decision on the new manager soon, who will have the difficult task of filling Southgate’s shoes and leading the team to further success.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">England</a> have lost another final, marking yet another huge blow for a program that fancies itself as one of the best in the world. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gareth-southgate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gareth Southgate</a>’s side fought valiantly, but Spain were able to score a late winner in the 86th minute, once again robbing England of a national team title.



During Gareth Southgate’s era as head coach of England, the English have returned to playing championship matches: a Euro Cup final defeat in 2020, a quarterfinal appearance in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and now another Euro Cup final defeat in 2024.



Despite having a very talented side, Southgate’s England has come up short but also cemented itself as one of the top national teams in the world.



<h2>England’s title drought</h2>

England’s title drought since their 1966 FIFA World Cup victory has been notable. From various Euros and World Cup tournaments, the English have not been able to achieve success since the days of the Beatles.

In total, 21,169 days have come and gone since England won a championship of any kind. This drought is being labeled as the “England Curse.” Will the 2026 World Cup finally be the title that snaps England’s unlucky streak?

England once again came close, but they once again fell short from the continental glory. With the loss to Spain at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">UEFA Euro 2024</a> final, the future of coach Gareth Southgate at the helm of the team looks like a situation to watch.



Southgate’s current contract with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england">England</a> runs out in December, but it looks like the English FA is planning to extend the manager’s deal for the years to come, at least until the 2026 World Cup. 



Before the Euro 2024 final, The Telegraph reported the FA wanted <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gareth-southgate">Southgate</a> to continue coaching England regardless of the result against Spain. But now that the Three Lions lost, we’ll have to wait and see whether the front office still wants this.



<h2>Gareth Southgate admitted Euro 2024 could be his last chance with England</h2>



Speaking to German outlet Bild ahead of this year’s European Championship, Southgate admitted that anything short of an English triumph in Germany could cost him the job with the national team.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240714_BUS_145480_GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites-1024x576_63813018.webp&amp;width=650&amp;height=365" alt="Gareth Southgate, Manager of England" class="wp-image-76549" width="650" height="365" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/GettyImages-1733976184-Futbolsites.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px"></figure><figcaption>Gareth Southgate, Manager of England.</figcaption></figure>



“If we don’t win, I probably won’t be here anymore. So maybe it is the last chance. I think around half the national coaches leave after a tournament — that’s the nature of international football,” said Southgate before the Euros. “I’ve been here almost eight years now and we’ve come close. You can’t constantly put yourself in front of the public and say, ‘A little more please’, as at some point people lose faith.”

<h2>Southgate’s record as England manager</h2>



In eight years in charge of the English national team, manager Gareth Soutghate has recorded 64 victories, 20 draws, and 19 losses in 103 games coached. Here’s his record at major international tournaments with England:



<ul><li>2018: World Cup semi-finalist</li><li>2019: Nations League semi-finalist</li><li>2020: EURO finalist</li><li>2022: World Cup quarter-finalist</li><li>2024: EURO finalist</li></ul>

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">England</a>‘s journey to the Euro final, secured with a 2-1 victory over the Netherlands, has sparked optimism and national fervor. The upcoming clash against Spain in Berlin holds immense significance, offering England the chance to secure their first major men’s title in 58 years should they prevail.



 The Times is reporting that the English FA is eager to retain <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gareth-southgate" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gareth Southgate</a>‘s services beyond Euro 2024, irrespective of the match outcome. Currently, Southgate’s contract is due to expire in December, prompting FA chief executive Mark Bullingham to plan fresh discussions with him post-tournament. 



The discussions aim to extend Southgate’s tenure up to the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, potentially marking his decade-long stint as England’s manager.

England FA have reportedly made future plans for Gareth Southgate after Euro 2024

Sarina Wiegman has done a remarkable job as head coach of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england">England</a> women’s national team. Last year, they conquered the UEFA Euro at home. Now, they’re just one victory away of winning the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/world-cup">World Cup</a>.



“It’s like I’m living a fairy tale or something. When you make the first final, you think: ‘This is really special. It might not happen again.’ Then you make a second, a third, a fourth, but you think it might not happen again because it’s so hard.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20221218#CMS#20"></div>


Wiegman also won the UEFA Euro with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/netherlands">Netherlands</a> in 2017 and led that team to the 2019 World Cup final which they lost against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/uswnt">USWNT</a>. Now, she could change soccer forever in England.



<h2>Sarina Wiegman could replace Gareth Southgate in England</h2>



Sarina Wiegman has become the first head coach ever to lead two different national teams to a World Cup final. Her progress with the famous Lionesses has been noticed by the English Football Association.







In a groundbreaking decision, Mark Bullingham, the chief executive of the FA, opened the door for Wiegman to replace Gareth Southgate as leader of the men’s national team. 



“People always say it is the best man for the job or the best Englishman. Why does it have to be a man? If she decides at some point in the future to go in a different direction, I think she’s perfectly capable of that.”



Sarina Wiegman has a valid contract until 2025, but the USWNT could knock on her door soon to take over the place left by Vlatko Andonovski. That’s why England might not let her go considering she could be the best person for the job.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230721#BUS#33682"></div>


“If that best person is a woman, then why not? We think Sarina is doing a great job and hope she continues doing it for a long time. I think Sarina could do anything she wants in soccer. If at some point in the future she decides she wants to move into the men’s game, that would be a really interesting discussion. But that’s for her, right?”

As a New York City native, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/folarin-balogun-picks-the-usmnt-over-england-and-opens-up-on-why-he-made-this-choice-20230516-BUS-1355.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Folarin Balogun</a> had options to play either for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">England</a>, Nigeria, or the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/us-national-team" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">United States</a>, and he was in the latter country for the international break to weigh his options.



The 21-year-old striker has impressed while on loan with Reims from Arsenal this season, scoring 19 goals to place him among the top five scorers in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ligue-1">French Ligue 1</a>. He is in good company, including <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kylian Mbappe</a>, Alexandre Lacazette, and Jonathan David.



Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to convince English coach Gareth Southgate to call him up and secure his international career. Instead, the Three Lions boss said that Balogun had never played in the Premier League before, which was the main reason why he wasn’t selected.



<h2>Why did Folarin Balogun ditch England in order to represent USMNT?</h2>



As a result, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arsenal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arsenal</a> forward has decided to play for the United States national team. The Athletic claims that the striker’s transfer from the English national team to the American one has been accepted by FIFA.



It took some cryptic Instagram postings, some social media super-sleuthing from a few dedicated USMNT supporters, an Orlando Magic game, a New York Yankees game, a chat with U.S. Soccer, and eventually, a promotional video to announce Balogun’s choice.

Eric Wynalda, a former star for the USMNT, thinks England’s arrogance over Balogun has come back to bite them: “Gareth Southgate&nbsp;has certainly made some missteps here with his comments about the talented American playing in France,” he told The Action Network.

“Southgate said: ‘We can’t just hand out international opportunities to a player simply because we don’t want them to play for somebody else’. Whoops – If he could&nbsp;take that&nbsp;one back now I think he would. Southgate has completely underestimated Folarin’s ability and tried to shrug it off. Sorry, but there are times where English arrogance needs to be illuminated and this is one of them.”

After their only <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/world-cup-2022-simulator" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Cup</a> title won as hosts in 1966, the last six decades are full of failures. In fact, England never returned to a final and their best performances were the semifinals in 1990 and 2018.
Even at the UEFA Euro, England haven’t been able to deliver. Their record in that tournament is worrisome.10 appearances and 0 titles. Furthermore, in their two chances at home (1996 and 2021), they failed to hoist the trophy. However, that last participation under Gareth Southgate’s leadership gave some hope that Qatar 2022 would be different. It wasn’t.
Now, after another failure in the quarterfinals losing against France in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-How-many-teams-have-won-the-World-Cup-in-consecutive-editions-20221210-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a>, England had to make important decisions looking towards the UEFA Euro in 2024. Continue reading to find out what’s the future of Gareth Southgate.
<h2>Will Gareth Southgate quit after the Qatar 2022 World Cup?</h2>
The answer is no. Prior to the Qatar 2022 World Cup final, the FA confirmed that Gareth Southgate will stay as manager of England. There were many rumors about a possible replacement, for example Thomas Tuchel, but there will be no changes for the Three Lions.
“We are delighted to confirm that Gareth Southgate is continuing as England Manager, and will lead our Euro 2024 campaign. Gareth and Steve Holland have always had our full support, and our planning for the Euros start now.”, was the message from FA CEO, Mark Bullingham.

Qatar 2022: England confirm Gareth Southgate's future after World Cup failure

Qatar 2022: England confirm Gareth Southgate's future after World Cup failure - Bolavip US

The victory not only placed a firm lock on first place in Group B but also gives England a breather when it comes to goal differential.
Still, despite the 6-2 thrashing of Iran, Gareth Southgate was not thrilled with his team’s defending after the match, in the post-match press conference, Southgate was quick to point out <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/qatar-2022-harry-kane-leads-englands-26-man-roster-for-the-fifa-world-cup-20221110-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">England’</a>s great attack but got caught sleeping on both goals.
As England proceed in the tournament the teams will only get harder and defending well will be key. Here is what Gareth Southgate had to say regarding the Three Lions victory over Iran.
<h2>Gareth Southgate on England’s defending after Iran win</h2>
“I’m a bit fed up with the end of it, really! To win by that margin with how we played for the majority of the game, we’ve got to be really happy. That’s the way the players prepared, they looked ready, we want to be that type of team and they dealt with the game well. It was a sticky first half with lots of stoppages, but we were a real threat throughout that. Our pressing was good, our movement was really good,” Southgate told BBC Sport.

“I’ve got to be happy, but we shouldn’t be conceding two goals in that stage of the game. We’ll have to be right on our game against the States. It’s a great start but we’re going to have to be better”, Southgate stated.
Southgate added, “We’ve got some good players and today they delivered. Our attacking players looked a threat throughout the game. I thought our defense in the first hour controlled the game and possession, patient with build-up. The midfield was excellent, both Declan and Jude. Our forwards looked a threat and that’s a great marker to put down.”

Qatar 2022: Gareth Southgate not happy with England defending after 6-2 win against Iran

Qatar 2022: Gareth Southgate not happy with England defending after 6-2 win against Iran - Bolavip US

Prior to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/france-reigning-fifa-world-cup-champion-out-of-the-top-3-most-valuable-national-teams-20220922-0021.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UEFA Nations League</a> match with Italy, Gareth Southgate held a press conference and was asked about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/frenkie-de-jong-reveals-why-he-did-not-want-to-go-to-manchester-united-20220922-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester United</a> defender Harry Maguire after the 29-year-old was dropped from the starting XI at the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-reportedly-have-their-sights-set-on-28m-striker-20220920-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Red Devils.</a>
Harry Maguire has only played three games this season for the Red Devils who <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/betting/premier-league-2022-23-betting-futures-20220819-0026.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sit fifth in the standings</a> with 4 wins and 2 losses. Despite Harry Maguire’s struggles, Southgate is behind his defender.
“We’re only a few weeks on from pre-season so, physically, if they’ve had a few 90 minutes, that’s fine. Another seven to eight weeks, that does start to become more complicated. But (Maguire) is an important player for us and it’s important to back our best players. Whatever reputation I have, I’m putting it on there. He is our most dominant aerial centre-back. Him and John [Stones] are incredible with the ball. The amount of pressure they have taken for the team in tournaments because we don’t always have that midfield pivot player who can progress the game – it means there is a huge amount more pressure on our centre-backs to use the ball well and those two are as good as any in world football at doing that.”
<h2>England’s tune ups before Qatar</h2>
While the USMNT fell to Japan 2-0 in a miserable performance, England will be taking on Italy and Germany before their opening game against Iran, who plays Uruguay today. The USMNT will now play Saudi Arabia in their second match before the World Cup, while Wales plays Poland after falling 2-1 to Belgium.

Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling, and Mason Mount will be the central figures of the England squad at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/qatar-2022-all-32-teams-home-and-away-jerseys-for-the-fifa-world-cup-20220626-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022 World Cup</a>. Clearly England is playing the best opposition before the start of the tournament compared to the other teams in their group.
