  "account": "Thomas Tuchel, England's head coach since 2025, has firmly stated his intention to remain with the Three Lions until the 2028 European Championship. The German, formerly at Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, signed a contract extension in February that keeps him in charge until Euro 2028. Despite reports of potential interest from major European clubs, including Manchester United's pursuit of US men's national team coach Mauricio Pochettino, Tuchel has ruled out an early return to club management. He emphasized his commitment to England, saying, \"I want to stay until the Euros. I want to do the Euros. We have unfinished business.\" While acknowledging his desire to return to club football, Tuchel admitted missing the intensity and atmosphere of matches in front of large crowds. England faces key challenges in the Nations League against Croatia and Spain in the coming weeks, as they aim to improve their standing in the group.",
