G. Southgate extends contract with FA © PA

“Sky Sports” reports that the England national team coach Gareth Southgate is set to sign a new two-year contract, which will allow him to coach the team at “Euro 2024” in Germany. His current contract will expire after next year's World Cup in Qatar. Under Southgate's leadership, England reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and then the final of the 2020 European Championship. For these achievements, the FA will reward him with a new contract. After defeating Albania 5-0 on Friday evening, Southgate continues to focus on the World Cup qualification, with England still needing a point to secure their spot in Qatar. “We need a point. It would be unfair if my focus was directed anywhere else other than that. My job is to lead this team to the World Cup, and then we can look at everything else,” he said.
