England football chiefs are mulling over the possibility of naming an interim boss to replace Gareth Southgate as part of an ambitious plan to lure Pep Guardiola into international management.

The Three Lions lost out to Spain in the Euro 2024 final with boss Southgate stepping down from his role following the defeat in Berlin.

Manchester City boss Guardiola stands out as a prospective candidate for the position if he chooses to depart from the team when his contract runs out in 2025.

Guardiola is poised to enter into his ninth season at the helm of the EPL champions with his current contract set to end after the subsequent campaign.
