LEE CARSLEY insists he is “happy and content” after returning to England Under-21s duty following his spell as interim boss of the senior team.

The 51-year-old was handed the reins on a temporary basis following Gareth Southgate’s departure, overseeing five wins and one loss in six Nations League matches.

Carsley was heavily linked with becoming England’s permanent manager before Thomas Tuchel’s appointment, but he is now back with the Under-21s ahead of a double-header with France and Portugal as preparations continue for the Euros this summer.
