Gareth Southgate has revealed that he actually turned down the England manager's job when it was first offered to him.
He took over as permanent boss in November 2016 after a four-game spell as caretaker following the sacking of Sam Allardyce. Since then, he has become the Three Lions' most successful boss since Sir Alf Ramsey.
Southgate has taken his side to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and the final of Euro 2020, with expectations high for the upcoming tournament in Qatar. But the England boss has now revealed that someone else could have been taking charge of the team for the past six years.
