THE FA remains committed to diversity in the England men’s senior team coaching staff, with fresh appointments to Thomas Tuchel’s group due to be made in the coming weeks, sources at the governing body have told the PA news agency.

None of the coaching group appointed by new head coach Tuchel so far are from ethnically diverse backgrounds, but sources close to the governing body insist diversity remains a top priority.

Ashley Cole has reverted to his role with the under-21s, having served as an interim assistant for the senior team alongside Lee Carsley in the autumn.
