Gareth Southgate signs new England contract to take him out of the running for Man Utd job
The Daily Express says Gareth Southgate has moved swiftly to tie up his England future by signing a new contract until December 2024.
The Three Lions boss put pen to paper on a two-year extension that nearly doubles his money within hours of Manchester United announcing the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Southgate’s name has been mentioned among the candidates for the United job and the indication that United were only in the hunt for an interim manager indicated that they would be prepared to wait for the right long-term candidate.
However, the much-touted agreement to extend his old deal beyond the end of next December’s World Cup final was finally put in place, with Southgate’s assistant Steve Holland also agreeing terms alongside him.
