From Women to Men Wiegman is a Candidate to Succeed Southgate in Coaching England https://m.stacker.news/40136 The English website "talkSPORT" has revealed that Sarina Wiegman, the coach of the England women's national team, is one of the leading candidates to succeed Gareth Southgate as the coach of the England men's national team.

Southgate, 53, led England to the European Championship finals twice in a row but failed to win the title the country has awaited for 58 years, losing to Spain 2-1 in the most recent final held in Berlin. After coaching the national team in 102 matches over eight years, Southgate decided to leave his position despite the English FA's desire for him to stay until the 2026 World Cup.

According to "talkSPORT," if the English FA is looking for a coach with a proven track record of international success and an understanding of how the FA operates, Sarina Wiegman would be one of the top candidates. Having won the European Championship with both the Netherlands and England women's national teams consecutively, Wiegman has demonstrated her ability to achieve success and deliver strong performances on the international stage.

Many have compared her to Gareth Southgate due to her high level of professionalism. However, some question whether this success can be translated to men's football, given the unique differences and challenges faced by coaches of men's teams. The website notes that prominent figures in women's football, like Emma Hayes, who has been considered for managerial positions in men's teams, have paved the way for greater gender integration in this field.
