Gareth Southgate Rules Out Coaching Return in Next Year

The former England manager distances himself from Manchester United job speculation, citing a need for rest and reflection.

Gareth Southgate has confirmed he will not return to coaching for at least a year following his resignation as England manager.
Despite being linked with Manchester United, Southgate stated he needs time to recover mentally and physically from his previous role.
Southgate, who led England to significant tournament successes, stepped down after the Euro 2024 final defeat to Spain.
He is currently involved with UEFA as a technical observer and is in demand as a speaker for corporate events.
Lee Carsley, the former England Under-21s coach, is serving as interim manager for the national team until a permanent replacement is found.
