The 46-year-old impressed the FA enough over four games in charge of the Three Lions on an interim basis to be confirmed until the end of Euro 2020. Gareth Southgate has been appointed as England manager permanently by the Football Association on a four-year contract until the end of Euro 2020.
The former England Under-21 boss was promoted to the top job at the end of September after predecessor Sam Allardyce was removed from the position after being caught up in a newspaper sting relating to alleged corruption in football.
Southgate then went undefeated over four games in the Three Lions' dugout, earning two wins and two draws, including a 3-0 win over Scotland and 2-2 draw against Spain.
Despite being increasingly tipped for the main role, Southgate had refused to talk up or deny the likelihood of becoming England's next manager permanently, instead constantly affirming he was focused only on helping his squad.
