Gareth Southgate said he was resigning as England manager on Tuesday two days after they lost to Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
Its time for change, and for a new chapter. Sundays final in Berlin against Spain was my final game as England manager, he said in a statement.
Southgate took over in 2016 when Englands fortunes were at a low ebb.
In the last four tournaments he led England to three semi-finals and two finals.
Prior to Southgates appointment, the Three Lions had reached just three major tournament semi-finals and one final in their history, when they won the 1966 World Cup.
As a proud Englishman, it has been the honour of my life to play for England and to manage England, said the 53-year-old.
It has meant everything to me, and I have given it my all. (AFP)
