After Gareth Southgate decided to step down as England manager, a number of famous English and European coaches were said to be candidates for the position of leading the "Three Lions". One of the rumored names is Pep Guardiola. Some British media even confirmed that the FA is willing to wait to get Guardiola's signature.
Guardiola is targeted by FA to lead the England team
The problem then arose because Guardiola still had a contract with Man City until June 2025. In addition, the Citizens' board of directors will also try their best to keep the Spanish coach. Therefore, there is information that the FA will appoint an interim coach to lead the England team until they get Guardiola's consent.
"The FA are considering the idea of appointing an interim manager to try to lure Pep Guardiola to the England job if he decides to leave Man City in 2025," the Independent reported. "While waiting is not the FA's preferred option, the former Barcelona boss is an excellent candidate. One that would make the FA reconsider if the opportunity to sign him arose."
Not only must the FA convince Man City to let Guardiola leave, they must also convince the 53-year-old strategist with a quality contract.
Lee Carsley is likely to take temporary charge of the England team.
Guardiola has expressed his desire to manage a national team after achieving success at club level. However, the former Barcelona coach is said to want to manage Brazil.
Regarding the interim coach to lead the England team, the British press said that the FA has chosen Lee Carsley, who is currently the coach of the country's U.21 team.
