Probierz stepped down as Poland's manager on Thursday. Lewandowski had announced that he would not play for the Polish national team while Probierz was in charge. Southgate has not taken on any coaching roles since leaving the England national team after the Euro 2024 final, where they lost to Spain.
As a highly experienced international manager, Southgate has a strong track record of success. However, he has not won a major trophy during his eight-year tenure with England. Despite this, he could be a good fit for the Poland job due to his extensive experience in international football.
Southgate's salary would likely be lower in Poland compared to his previous role with the English Football Association. The former Portugal boss, Fernando Santos, was reportedly earning around €2.5 million annually. This could be a factor in Southgate's decision to apply for the Poland job.
