Lee Carsley is back working with England's Under-21s after leading the Three Lions to five wins out of six during his interim spell with the senior squad.
According to a report, he is happy in this role and has no urgent desire to jump ship and try his hand at club management.
The 50-year-old is content with waiting out Thomas Tuchel - who signed an 18-month deal beginning in January 2025 - and trying to become England's permanent manager after the World Cup in 2026.
As well as his near perfect record, Carsley handed England debuts to eight players in his two months in charge.
These were Angel Gomes, Noni Madueke, Tino Livramento, Lewis Hall, Curtis Jones, Morgan Rogers, Morgan Gibbs-White and Taylor Harwood-Bellis.
Those close to him say that he relishes his current position and does not want to take a major step-up in his managerial career just yet, according to The Sun.
Despite the heavy links before Tuchel's appointment, Carsley revealed last month that he did not formally apply for the job, but wishes the German all the best in the future.
He will certainly be in contact with Tuchel at the turn of the new year and humbly admitted that the Champions League winning boss will not have a lot to learn from him.
'I am not sure I will give Thomas a lot of advice,' he said.
'He is in a better position than I am in terms of the experience he has had and the staff he has.
'It will probably be more about the players, the personalities and the stuff you won't see on the TV.
'I'm putting together a lot of thoughts, as are the rest of the staff.
'I fully expect to catch up with him after the camp, and hopefully we can hand the team over in a good position.'
