LONDON : England head coach Thomas Tuchel strode confidently in to Wembley Stadium on Wednesday with a single-minded vision to win the 2026 World Cup for the success-starved soccer nation.A whirlwind week has seen the 51-year-old German sign an 18-month contract to lead England to the tournament being played in the United States, Canada and Mexico.Speaking at a packed news conference, the former Paris St Germain, Chelsea and Bayern Munich coach borrowed a quote from Brazilian great Pele to describe his excitement at becoming only the third foreign coach to lead England."I'm of course obviously very excited and honoured to be here today as a new head coach of England," Tuchel, who will take up his new role in January, told reporters."I just had the chance to read a quote from Pele in the building who said that Wembley is the heart, the capital and the cathedral of football and I think he was absolutely right."England, however, have not won the World Cup, or any other major trophy, since 1966 and Tuchel said it was time to capitalise on one of the best squads since that 1966 team."I understood very quickly that it's a big job," Tuchel said. "Once I made a time frame up in my mind from January to the World Cup, I felt already excited that it suited my passion, to strive to push this group of players."To be part of this federation with such a strong record in the last tournaments to push it over the line and to try to put a second star on the shirt," he added in reference to the convention of international teams wearing shirts bearing the number of stars to match their World Cup triumphs.Mark Bullingham, the FA's chief executive, said around 10 candidates had been interviewed for the job but that Tuchel had a clear vision
