England boss Gareth Southgate says he needs time to reflect before signing a new contract.
The Three Lions were beaten on penalties by Italy in the Euro 2020 final at Wembley on Sunday night.
Football Association chief executive Mark Bullingham said during the tournament that he wants to hand Southgate a new deal.
But Southgate told a press conference on Monday: “I don’t think now is an appropriate time to think about anything.
“We have got to qualify for Qatar but I need some time to go away and watch the game and reflect on the whole tournament, I need a rest.
“It is amazing experience but to lead your country in these tournaments takes its toll and I need a break now.”
