Gareth Southgate is now just 2/5 to become Sir Gareth in New Year's Honours
Former England manager Gareth Southgate is now 2/5 with UK Betting Sites to become Sir Gareth in the upcoming New Year's Honours list by King Charles.
Southgate stepped down from his role as England boss after the Three Lions were defeated by Spain in the Euro 2024 Final but he has been lauded by pundits since taking over.
The former England player took over as manager of his country in 2016 and his eight-year spell in charge saw him reach two Euro finals and a World Cup semi-final.
Ladbrokes latest betting odds say that his managerial performance this summer has given him a 71.4% chance of being knighted by King Charles in the New Year's Honours.
| Will Gareth Southgate be knighted in New Year's Honours? | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | 2/5 | 71.4% |
| No | 7/4 | 36.4% |
What the expert says...
Southgate has a new role in football
Southgate now has a new role in football after stepping down as England boss, with the former manager now working for UEFA.
The former Aston Villa and Middlesbrough player has become a UEFA technical observer and followed in the footsteps of other managers who have taken on the role such as David Moyes.
UEFA technical observers analyse the game from a coaching perspective and usually pick the Player of the Match and Team of the Tournament too.
Lee Carsley is now 8/13 to become the permanent England manager
Current Interim England manager Lee Carsley has now shortened into just 8/13 to become the permanent manager of the Three Lions after a debut win in charge.
Carsley led England against the Republic of Ireland on Saturday, who he made 40 appearances for in his playing career, and they ran out 2-0 winners.
Now Bet365's betting odds put him clear in the market to get the job on a permanent basis with a win against Finland on Tuesday night likely cementing his position.
| Next England Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Lee Carsley | 8/13 | 61.9% |
| Pep Guardiola | 11/2 | 15.4% |
| Eddie Howe | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Graham Potter | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Jurgen Klopp | 14/1 | 6.7% |
