Gareth Southgate has left his job as England manager after Euro Cup 2024 finals against Spain. Meanwhile, the hunt for a new manager is still on. It is interesting to note, however, that Southgate was the highest paid manager in the entire Euros, comprising of some of the globally top-ranked participating countries. Southgate left his post even after being tipped for knighthood for services to the country. His stellar record saw England reaching the finals of Euro championships twice, as well as the 2018 FIFA World Cup semifinals. Therefore, his inflated salary was quite justified, looking at his enormous responsibility of leading England to such epic international clashes throughout his eight years with the team. Although he could not manage to win a silverware for the team, he still leaves behind a rich legacy and a formation of an elite team that has tasted success at the highest levels. How much did Gareth Southgate earn as England manager?
