Southgate Set To Sign New England Deal
Gareth Southgate is set to sign a new four-year contract to remain as England manager for the 2022 World Cup.
The 48-year-old, whose current deal expires in 2020, led his team to the World Cup semi-finals for the first time in 28 years this summer in Russia.
He has agreed improved terms, which will see his salary increase to a reported £3m a year.
The contract will be discussed at a Football Association board meeting on Thursday.
England’s next match is away to Croatia in the Nations League on 12 October.
Having initially taken over as caretaker manager following the departure of Sam Allardyce in September 2016, former Aston Villa and Middlesbrough centre-back Southgate signed a four-year deal as permanent England boss in November of that year.
