Gareth Southgate Extends Contract as England Manager
Southgate to Stay On Until After Euro 2024
Appointment Confirmed by Football Association
England manager Gareth Southgate has signed a new contract that will keep him in the role until December 2024. The Football Association has confirmed the news, ensuring that Southgate will lead the Three Lions in the upcoming European Championships.
Southgate was first appointed as interim manager in 2016 following a poor run of results under Sam Allardyce. However, he quickly impressed the FA and was given the permanent role in November of that year.
Under Southgate's leadership, England has reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and the final of the 2020 European Championships. He has also overseen a significant improvement in the team's style of play.
The FA's decision to extend Southgate's contract is a clear sign of confidence in his abilities. The 49-year-old has proven himself to be a capable manager and has the full support of the players and the fans.
With the Euros just over a year away, Southgate will be hoping to lead England to their first major trophy since 1966. The Three Lions will be one of the favorites for the tournament, and Southgate will be determined to make history.
