England under-21s head coach Lee Carsley<\/p>\n

Former Birmingham City midfielder, coach and one-time interim boss Lee Carsley<\/a> is reportedly ready to return to club management.<\/p>\n

Carsley is currently manager of the England under-21s and has led the Young Lions to consecutive European Championship titles.<\/p>\n

The 52-year-old has been linked with a host of club jobs during his time in the England set-up but has always opted against it having tasted management briefly with Blues and Brentford.<\/p>\n

Carsley had an interim spell in charge of Blues<\/a> back in 2017 following the sacking of Harry Redknapp and presided over a victory, a draw and a defeat from his three games in charge.<\/p>\n

He fared better at Brentford and even won a Championship Manager of the Month award in October 2015.<\/p>\n

Journalist Alan Nixon claims Carsley<\/a> \u2013 who led England\u2019s senior team briefly in 2024 before Thomas Tuchel arrived to succeed Gareth Southgate \u2013 is ‘in the market for a club job’.<\/p>\n

A number of Championship jobs could become available in the summer with Blackburn Rovers, Leicester City and West Bromwich Albion all currently employing interim bosses until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Carsley’s England U21s drew 1-1 with Andorra last week and take on Moldova in their latest Euros qualifier on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
