Next England manager odds: Who could replace Gareth Southgate?

Confirming his resignation on Tuesday (16th July), Southgate said: "As a proud Englishman, it has been the honour of my life to play for England and to manage England. It has meant everything to me, and I have given it my all.

"But it’s time for change, and for a new chapter. Sunday’s final in Berlin against Spain was my final game as England manager."

He added: "I joined the FA in 2011, determined to improve English football. In that time, including eight years as England men’s manager, I have been supported by some brilliant people who have my heartfelt thanks.

"I could not have had anyone better alongside me than Steve Holland. He is one of the most talented coaches of his generation, and has been immense.

"I have had the privilege of leading a large group of players in 102 games. Every one of them has been proud to wear the three lions on their shirts, and they have been a credit to their country in so many ways."

He continued: "The squad we took to Germany is full of exciting young talent and they can win the trophy we all dream of. I am so proud of them, and I hope we get behind the players and the team at St George’s Park and the FA who strive every day to improve English football, and understand the power football has to drive positive change.

"My special thanks go to the backroom staff who have provided the players and me with unstinting support over the last eight years. Their hard work and commitment inspired me every day, and I am so grateful to them – the brilliant "team behind the team".

"Thank you, England – for everything."

Next England manager odds: Who could replace Gareth Southgate?

Eddie Howe: 11/4

Eddie Howe is now the favourite with Betfair at 11/4.

The current Newcastle manager has proven his credentials over the last couple of years by guiding Newcastle to a top-four finish in the Premier League and qualification for the Champions League.

Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live about the next Three Lions manager, former Newcastle and England striker Alan Shearer said: "I know who will be mentioned a lot of times and it'll be the Newcastle manager Eddie Howe."

He added: "He's done an unbelievable job at Newcastle, I am pretty sure he will be contacted and then it will be up to him to say if he is interested or not - but who could blame him?

"When your country comes calling it will be very difficult [to turn down].

"Only he can answer that, but I imagine Eddie will be very high on the FA's list."

Graham Potter: 3/1

Graham Potter, who is out of work since leaving Chelsea last year, is next on the odds list at 3/1.

Lee Carsley: 7/2

Lee Carsley is also amongst the favourites with the bookmakers to succeed Southgate, having guided the young Lions to the European U21 Championship last year and emerging victorious against none other than Spain in the final.

Jurgen Klopp 17/2

Jurgen Klopp is another contender, and is listed at 17/2 with Betfair.

Mauricio Pochettino: 9/1

Pochettino, another former Chelsea manager, is another favourite to succeed Southgate after he left his role at Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.

He is currently listed at 9/1 with Betfair.
