Putting together the rest of the team could be relatively easy, as cast members have repeatedly said they would like to reprise their roles, given the opportunity to do so.
The publication reports that the writers have already begun work plotting out what a new season would entail.
At the end of season three, Sudeikis’ Lasso had returned to his son and ex-wife in Kansas, while Hunt’s Coach Beard remained in the UK.
The show won 13 Primetime Emmy awards during its very successful run.
The end of season three was never considered the show’s finale, which allowed fans to dream about more adventure on the pitch and that appears to be exactly what they will get, eventually.
Sudeikis has kept a low profile since the season three finale.
The Saturday Night Live alum has been doing voice work on the TV series Hit-Monkey, and on the upcoming animated Hit Pig and The Angry Birds Movie 3.
Waddingham has seen her career expand with roles in the summer hit The Fall Guy with Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

‘Never in a million years did I think my first ever foray into voiceover work would bring me to an Emmy nomination!!!.’ she wrote on social media. I love playing this vile, satisfying, hilarious, minxy goddess Deliria in @krapopollis on the @fox network. Thank you so much for recognizing me amongst these, quite frankly, voiceover titans! Xx.’
Goldstein, who was one of the writers and executive producers on Ted Lasso, is also one of the creative forces behind the Emmy nominated Shrinking, starring Jason Segal and Harrison Ford.
Season two of the Shrinking will debut October 16.
