Former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has agreed to become the next England manager.
Rushhoursport has been told by two different sources that German Tuchel will become the third non-British permanent manager of the England men's team after Sven-Goran Eriksson and Fabio Capello.
England have been without a permanent manager since Gareth Southgate resigned following the Three Lions' Euro 2024 final defeat against Spain.
Lee Carsley, who the Football Association put in charge on an interim basis, will remain in place for England's final two Nations League matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland in November, with Tuchel set to formally take over after that.
Tuchel's formal unveiling is expected this week at Wembley.
His main target will be leading England through qualification for the 2026 World Cup which takes place in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
An approach was also made for Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola in the summer to see if had an interest in the role.
Tuchel is familiar with English football having managed Chelsea between January 2021 and September 2022.
