Gareth Southgate will lead England national team until December after
having signed a new deal with England.
Southgate, whose previous contract was set to run out after the 2022 winter
World Cup in Qatar, has been manager of the national side since November
2016.
In 2018, he led England to the World Cup semi-finals for the first time in 28 years.
In 2019, England finished third in the Uefa Nations League tournament.
He led England to the final of Euro 2020 and their best men’s performance
in 55 years in July.
“It remains an incredible privilege to lead this team.
We have a great opportunity in front of us,” he said.
Southgate will oversee England’s progress at next year’s World Cup,
which runs from 21 November 18 December, and the qualification stages for
Euro 2024, with the tournament taking place from 14 June-14 July.
England have won 44 of their 68 matches under Southgate,
with 14 defeats and 10 draws.
