January 2 – Former England manager Gareth Southgate has been given a knighthood in the UK’s annual New Year Honours list.
Southgate led England to two consecutive European Championship finals and the 2018 World Cup semi-finals, making him the most successful incumbent since Alf Ramsey although he was unable to end the country’s wait for a first major trophy since 1966.
