Gareth Southgate resigns as England manager after Euro 2024 final loss, leaving a legacy of success and pride.
Gareth Southgate said he was resigning as England manager on July 16 two days after they lost to Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
“It’s time for change, and for a new chapter. Sunday’s final in Berlin against Spain was my final game as England manager,” he said in a statement.
Southgate took over in 2016 when England’s fortunes were at a low ebb.
In the last four tournaments he led England to three semifinals and two finals.
Prior to Southgate’s appointment, the Three Lions had reached just three major tournament semifinals 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.”

At a recent event held in the city, Cambridge University Press & Assessment launched an advisory panel comprising leaders from top global corporations, aiming to bridge the employability gap in India and better align academic output with industry needs. A whitepaper released at the event highlighted the growing importance of communication skills, the need for stronger collaboration between industry and universities, and strategies to bridge the persistent skill gap.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
