Gareth Southgate, England's manager, has brought the team tantalizingly close to their second major trophy but acknowledges that he needs to seal the deal this summer to secure his future with the squad.
With Euro 2024 looming, Southgate sees this as his "last chance" to clinch a trophy as England's manager. He has held the reins for eight years, guiding the team to a semi-final at the 2018 World Cup and a final appearance at Euro 2020, only to face a quarter-final exit in the Qatar World Cup.
While the Football Association desires Southgate to extend his tenure beyond his contract's expiration in December and lead England into the 2026 World Cup, Southgate feels the weight of expectation.
He understands that failure to secure victory at the Euros could spell the end of his tenure. Speaking to German newspaper Bild, Southgate expressed, "If we don't win, I probably won't be here anymore... So maybe it is the last chance."
Acknowledging the transient nature of international football, Southgate emphasizes the importance of delivering in crucial moments to maintain public faith and solidify England's status as a top team.
Despite the FA providing an additional six months to his contract post-Euros for consideration, Southgate recognizes the necessity of success in Germany to secure his future.
As preparations intensify for Sunday's match against Serbia, Southgate faces immediate challenges, including addressing a lackluster performance in a recent warm-up match against Iceland and managing concerns over John Stones' injury.
Amidst the preparations, England's training session in Jena, Germany, serves as a crucial opportunity to refine strategies and rally support from thousands of fans.
