USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann 'interested in becoming new England manager'

USA head coach Jurgen Klinsmann is reportedly interested in becoming the next England manager following Roy Hodgson's resignation.

USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann is reportedly interested in succeeding Roy Hodgson as England manager.

The Football Association is looking to appoint a new boss following Hodgson's resignation.

The 68-year-old announced his departure less than an hour after England suffered a humiliating 2-1 defeat to Iceland in the last-16 stage of Euro 2016 in Nice on Monday night.

Gareth Southgate, Eddie Howe, Glenn Hoddle and Gary Neville have been touted as possible candidates, but FA chief executive Martin Glenn claimed yesterday that the governing body is open to appointing a foreign manager.

According to Sky Sports News, Klinsmann, who has been in charge of the USA team since 2011, is intrigued by the prospect of becoming the new England manager.

The 51-year-old, who won the World Cup with Germany in 1990 as a player, took the USA to the semi-finals of the Copa America earlier this month, but his team were beaten 4-0 by Argentina.

In his management career, Klinsmann finished third with Germany at the 2006 World Cup and won the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup with the USA.
