England are aiming to clinch the coveted title for the first time since their crowning moment in 1966, as Tuchel seeks to lead the English Lions to the promised land.
Former England manager Gareth Southgate helped the Three Lions to deep runs at the World Cup in 2022, where he led the side to a semifinals finish, and the UEFA Euros in 2020 and 2024 as the English side went all the way up to the final before stumbling in the ultimate hurdle.
England are in Group L of the World Cup, where they will face Croatia, Ghana, and Panama in the group stage. Their opening match is scheduled for June 17 against Croatia in Dallas.
