The manager of England national team, Gareth Southgate has resigned from his plum job.
He took the decision following the Three Lions second consecutive European Championship final defeat.
England lost 2-1 to Spain in the final of the Euro 2024 in Berlin on Sunday.
The Three Lions were also beaten on penalties in the final by Italy on home soil three years ago.
The 53-year-old managed his country for 102 games in eight years in charge. His contract was set to expire later this year.
“As a proud Englishman, it has been the honour of my life to play for England and to manage England,” said Southgate.
“It has meant everything to me, and I have given it my all.
“But it’s time for change, and for a new chapter,” PNO Sports quoted him as saying.
