I Could Leave England If We Don’t Win Euro 2024 – Says Gareth Southgate

England manager, Gareth Southgate, says the upcoming European Championship in Germany could be his final opportunity to secure a major trophy with the national team.

Southgate has been at the helm of the Three Lions since 2016.

The 53-year-old led England to the Euro 2020 final and also guided them to a third-place Nations League finish in 2019.

Although there have been suggestions connecting former Middlesbrough coach Gareth Southgate with Manchester United, he was completely focused on the national team. Southgate’s contract with England is due in December.

“If we don’t win, I probably won’t be here anymore. Then it might be the last chance,” Southgate told German newspaper BILD. “I think about half the national team coaches leave after a tournament that’s the nature of international football.

“I’ve been here for almost eight years now and we’ve been close. So I know that you can’t keep standing in front of the public and saying, ‘A little bit more please’ because at some point, people lose faith in your message.

“If we want to be a great team and I want to be a top coach, then you have to deliver in the big moments.”

England will start their Group C journey against Serbia on Sunday, before facing Denmark and Slovenia in subsequent matches.
