Speaking to <a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c4ngjxzx9pro" target="_blank">BBC Sport</a>, the English coach said: "Emotionally it would be impossible for me to make a logical decision at the moment on any of that because my sole focus for two years has been winning this tournament."The last five or six weeks have been an absolute rollercoaster, so I don't really know where I am with anything other than very focused on preparing the team for this game and determined to keep leading them in the way we have over the last month."

The former Middlesbrough manager was linked with a move to Manchester United after the completion of the Euros earlier in the summer, however, the Red Devils later decided to continue with Erik ten Hag. Some reports suggest that the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-fa-decide-gareth-southgate-future-euro-2024-final-result/blt649f5dc14b56b985#cs293a0ad5c993e53b" target="_blank">Football Association are planning to extend his stay</a> irrespective of Sunday's result.
