Squad hope manager stays to lead World Cup campaignSouthgate: ‘I’ve earned the right to give myself a few days’
Gareth Southgate has promised to make a quick decision about his England future after the Euro 2024 final, with his squad united in the hope that he signs a contract extension to lead them into the World Cup qualifiers.
There is considerable appetite within the Football Association for Southgate, whose deal expires at the end of the year, to continue and potentially extend his tenure to a decade. But he has been clear that a topsy-turvy tournament, which will end in glory if England defeat Spain in Berlin, is no arena in which to reach conclusions. Those will have to wait but he does not expect it to take long.
