WORLD CUP winner Joachim Low fancies the England job.
Low, 64, was Germany’s manager for 15 years and guided the country to World Cup success in Brazil in 2014.
He would be happy to talk to the FA following the resignation of Gareth Southgate.
Another German, ex-Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, would be a popular England appointment among some fans but he has absolutely no interest in returning to football this summer.
Eddie Howe, Graham Potter and Lee Carsley are some of the names on the FA’s shortlist.
They would prefer an Englishman but are not ruling out a foreign boss.
Low’s last game before stepping down as German boss was the 2-0 defeat to Southgate’s England at Wembley in the last 16 of Euro 2020 three years ago.
The former Stuttgart and Fenerbahce manager has not worked since.
Southgate earned £5million-a-year managing England and Low banked just half of that amount in his final contract with the German FA.
Klopp earned £15m-a-season at Liverpool and any wage like that would make it impossible for the FA to make a move.
Low’s appeal would be his huge international experience with Germany. He also took the nation to third spot at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, when they beat England 4-1 along the way. Under Low, Germany also reached the final of Euro 2008 but they lost 1-0 to Spain in the final – Sun.
