Before entering the Euro 2024 semi-final against the Netherlands, England coach Gareth Southgate received good news from home.
According to The Telegraph , Mr. Southgate will be knighted by the British Royal Family after returning from Germany. This decision was made right before the Euro 2024 semi-final. Accordingly, Coach Southgate will be knighted whether he and his students win Euro 2024 or not.
In fact, Coach Southgate has been under consideration for a knighthood since his achievement in taking England to the Euro 2020 final. However, the discussion on this issue was put on hold due to Mr. Southgate's tax issues.
To date, for his contributions to English football, coach Gareth Southgate will officially be knighted after Euro 2024.
Despite criticism, it is undeniable that the Three Lions' performance has improved significantly since Southgate took charge. England have reached the semi-finals of three of the last four major tournaments. They were runners-up at Euro 2020.
With this knighthood, the 53-year-old strategist will join the ranks of Lewis Hamilton, Alex Ferguson, Andy Murray and Chris Hoy - outstanding figures who have made great contributions to UK sports .
This will be a huge motivation for coach Southgate and the England team to aim for the second consecutive Euro final.
