English soccer, which has suffered repeated defeats in two consecutive European finals, reached a turning point on Wednesday (16) with an English soccer team looking towards the challenge of the 2026 World Cup. They announced that they had reached an agreement with Germany's marquee manager Ducao, officially introducing him as the team's new leader. The historic appointment was doubly heartening for England captain Harry Carney, who declared it the third foreign leader in the team's history.
With Shovky retiring in Europe this season, England's last four Europa League matches have been taken over by Casley. Nonetheless, the team's goals remain the same. On Tuesday (15), the English soccer team met with Ducao and quickly reached an agreement in just one day. The two sides signed an agreement that will last until the 2026 World Cup, and Ducao will be paid up to £5 million a year. It is understood that Ducao will officially take over in January next year, when the two European Nations League matches in November will still be managed by Casley.
The Ducau system became the third foreign coach in England's history, following Sweden's Aleksson and Italy's Capillo. Despite this, England have been challenged three times as foreign leaders in international matches. Even with superstars such as Beecham, Owain and Sherratt, they have finished in the top eight at best in three British armies; Cabillu's situation is even more embarrassing. He failed to even finish in the top 16 in 2010. Eventually, as Terry was stripped of his captaincy, his relationship with the British soccer team hierarchy broke down and he eventually chose to resign.
The 51-year-old Tucao has coached top clubs such as Dormont, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, Bayern and Munich. He worked with England captain Harry Carney at Bayern last season, and Harry Carney expressed his anticipation for Ducao even before the official announcement: "We shouldn't comment too much before it's official, but I know Ducao very well, he's a great leader and a very nice person, and I'm sure I'll adapt to his style quickly. "
