Gareth Southgate has been knighted at Windsor Castle after being recognised in the New Year Honours.
Sir Gareth was recognised for his services to football and officially received his knighthood from Prince William today.
Southgate, 54, transformed the England national team as manager between 2016 and 2024 – leading the nation to two major finals.
The former Crystal Palace and Middlesbrough defender led England to the final of both Euro 2020 and Euro 2024, heartbreakingly falling at the final hurdle on both occasions.
While his efforts in charge of the Three Lions at the World Cup saw England bow out in the semi-final in 2018 and the quarter-final in 2022.
In all, Southgate took charge of 102 games as England boss, winning 64, drawing 20 and losing just 18.
