Southgate's previous contract is suppose to expire after the Fifa World Cup 2022 in Qatar, and had been unwilling to negotiate an extension of contract until qualification for the world football tournament was secured.
During the recent international break, talks started to speed up and the Football Association (FA) went ahead to confirm that an agreement had been reached.
Gareth Southgate and his assistant Steve Holland have both agreed new deals to stay on until 2024.
