It has been seven months since fans had to say goodbye to Ted Lasso and his band of merry men. However, fans still haven’t stopped clamoring for a fourth season. While nothing has been officially announced yet, director Declan Lowney hinted at the possibility in an August interview. He mentioned that although season 3 marked the end, there could be further developments down the line.

“It’s going to be two or three years before anything happens — if anything happens,” stated the director.
