Gareth Southgate has announced that he is stepping down from his role as manager of the England national team.
“As a proud Englishman, it has been the honour of my life to play for England and to manage England,” Southgate said. “It has meant everything to me, and I have given it my all. But it’s time for change, and for a new chapter. I’m leaving my role.”
Under his stewardship, England reached the semifinals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the final of Euro 2020 (played in 2021), and the quarterfinals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar before this latest run to the final of Euro 2024 in Germany.
