Euro 2024: Gareth Southgate to discuss England future after loss - ESPN

15.07.2024 - 01:21 espn.com

BERLIN — Gareth Southgate has said a decision over his England future is «not for now» and will speak to «important people behind the scenes» in the coming days after Sunday's Euro 2024 final defeat to Spain.

The Three Lions became the first team ever to lose back-to-back Euro finals as Mikel Oyarzabal struck an 86th-minute winner to give Spain a deserved 2-1 win in Berlin.

Nico Williams had earlier given Spain a 47th-minute lead before substitute Cole Palmer equalised 17 minutes from time with a fine strike from the edge of the box.

Southgate's current contract expires in December and sources have told ESPN that the FA want the 53-year-old to remain in post for the 2026 World Cup having reached two finals, a semifinal and a quarter-final during his four tournaments in charge.
