Gareth Southgate to remain England's manager until European Championships in 2024

LONDON: Gareth Southgate will remain as England's manager until the European Championships in 2024, the Football Association (FA) confirmed on Sunday.

After England's quarterfinal exit at the FIFA World Cup 2022, Southgate had said he was conflicted about his future in the role. His current contract is due to expire in December 2024 and he will now remain in charge of England for what will be his fourth major tournament at the helm.

The 52-year-old, who was appointed in 2016, led the Three Lions to the World Cup semifinals in 2018 and a first Euros final in 2021.

"We are delighted to confirm that Gareth Southgate is continuing as England manager and will lead our Euro 2024 campaign," said FA chief executive Mark Bullingham in a statement. IANS
