Gareth Southgate is relegated to England by Carsley, but only for a transitory period of time.
Lee Carsley is to move up as England under-21 director to coach the Three Lions ' top edge.
After eight years in charge, Gareth Southgate announced his resignation as England's manager last month, losing his subsequent European Championship final in a row. The Football Association stated that they would seek a replacement but added that they would also pick an interval boss.
Then, under-21 director Carsley has been selected as that decision. This follows the FA doing the same thing when they gave Southgate the reins in 2016 after Sam Allardyce's departure.
Carsley remarked," It's a pleasure to step up and take the place of the England squad in the time." As I am quite familiar with the people and the period of global sports, it makes sense for me to link the team while The FA continues the process to attract a new boss. Our primary goal is to advance to the UEFA Nations League, and my top priority is to ensure stability.
Mark Bullingham, The FA's CEO, said:" Lee is a fantastic coach who is well known to the majority of our present top crew having worked with most at foreign or membership level. He offers us a very strong interim solution and we are confident he will perform well in the UEFA Nations League games ahead. We are grateful to Lee for stepping up to manage the team while we continue with our recruitment process".
Carsley won Under-21 Euro 2023 last summer with England. Replacing Carsley, Ben Futcher will take charge of the under-21s for the forthcoming 2025 U21 Euros qualifiers.
England are in UEFA Nations League B Group 2 alongside Finland, Greece and Republic of Ireland.
