England winning the World Cup is written in the stars with my Thomas... a mutter* knows!

Gabriele Tuchel still lives near the school in Germany where her son began his "unbelievable journey".

She told how he set his heart on becoming a footballer at an early age, winning national competitions at 14 before joining local side TSV Krumbach.

He went on to become a professional footballer before injury ruled him out of the game at just 25.

Since then Gabriele has seen her son manage Paris St Germain, Chelsea and Bayern Munich and win nine trophies in a glittering career.

She said landing the England job was "ein kleines Wunder" - a little miracle.

Asked if our first-ever German boss can win the World Cup for England, she told us: "He can do it, I am convinced."

Beaming with pride, she went on: "He does everything with such passion, obviously many things can happen in football. But England have not won a trophy in such a long time.

DESTINY

"It is written in the stars, there is a special alignment, you can do it. It was my son's destiny to get this job."

Father-of-two Thomas, 51, speaks flawless English and loved languages from an early age. But his heart was set on becoming a footballer.
