Assembling the rest of the team could be relatively simple, as the cast members have repeatedly stated that they would like to reprise their roles if given the chance.
The publication reports that the writers have already started working on the content of a new season.
At the end of season three, Sudeikis’ Lasso returned to his son and ex-wife in Kansas, while Hunt’s Coach Beard remained in the United Kingdom.
The show won 13 Primetime Emmy Awards during its successful run.
The ending of season three was never considered the series finale, leaving fans to dream of more adventure on the pitch, and that seems to be what they’ll get.
Sudeikis has kept a low profile since the season three finale.
The former Saturday Night Live host has done voice work for the TV series Hit-Monkey and the upcoming animated series Hit Pig and The Angry Birds Movie 3.
Waddingham has seen her career grow with roles in the summer hit The Fall Guy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

Ted Lasso won 13 Primetime Emmys during the series’ three-season run.
She was also recently nominated for an Emmy for her voice work as the goddess Deliria in the animated film Krapopolis.
“Never in a million years did I think my first attempt at voiceover work would earn me an Emmy nomination!!!” she wrote on social media. “I am so excited to play this disgustingly satisfying, hilariously adorable goddess Deliria in @krapopollis on the @fox network. Thank you so much for recognizing me amongst these, quite frankly, voiceover titans! Xx.”
Goldstein, one of the writers and executive producers of Ted Lasso, is also one of the creative forces behind the Emmy-nominated Shrinking, starring Jason Segal and Harrison Ford.
The second season of Shrinking will be released on October 16.
