The FA is looking to replace Gareth Southgate as England manager with an online advert

The Football Association of England has published a vacancy for the coach of the men's national team, after the previous coach Gareth Southgate announced that he was leaving the post a few days ago.

Southgate ended his time in charge of the Three Lions after losing 2-1 to Spain in the Euro 2024 final on Sunday. Immediately after that, rumors began to appear as to who will be the new coach of the extremely talented English team, with names such as Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp, Yogi Löw and others being floated.

However, the FA is taking a non-standard move for such a high position. The center has published an advertisement on its website, which is open to all candidates who meet the conditions. The candidate must have a UEFA Pro license, have significant experience in English football and achieved results in the Premier League or other leading championships, be a leader who will understand the specifics of national teams. Among the important requirements is that the candidate is very resilient and comfortable in such a high-profile position and intense public criticism. It is important that he or she also realizes that the role of the England national coach is to "inspire the nation".

The FA notes that they have already identified a number of candidates, but they want the appointment process to be as open as possible. From there they assure that anyone who meets the criteria and applies will receive a response. The announcement is open for applications until August 2. | BGNES
