'Unfinished business' - Tuchel committed to England

Tuchel has no release clause in his England contract and is committed to staying through Euro 2028, though he plans to return to club management afterwards.

England head coach Thomas Tuchel has reaffirmed his commitment to the national team, stating he has "no intention" of leaving before Euro 2028 despite potential offers from major clubs. Tuchel signed an extension in February that runs until the Euros, which England will co-host, and crucially his contract contains no release clause that would allow clubs to buy him out.

The comments come as Manchester United pursue USA men's coach Mauricio Pochettino to replace Michael Carrick, a move that would require activating a £7m release clause in Pochettino's contract. Tuchel, however, made clear his situation is different and that he intends to see out his England tenure.

"I signed the contract, I want to stay until the Euros," Tuchel said. "I want to do the Euros. We have unfinished business." England lost the past two Euros finals under Gareth Southgate before Tuchel led the Three Lions to the semi-finals of this summer's World Cup.

The former Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Paris St-Germain boss did acknowledge he misses club football and will return to management after his England contract expires, saying he misses playing 50 matches a season and the atmosphere of club football.
