GARETH SOUTHGATE was offered a shock career change within minutes of stepping down as England manager.

Southgate quit as Three Lions chief after seeing his side fall at the final hurdle once more with a 2-1 defeat to Spain in Sunday’s Euro final.

Southgate has now decided the time is right to go, with bookmakers proposing he will become the Manchester United boss already.

But now Domino’s Pizza have also entered the fray by offering Southgate the chance to apply for a job.

As soon as Fabrizio Romano posted Southgate’s decision to vacate his role as manager of the national team, the pizza giant stepped in.

Almost immediately, Domino’s replied on X: “We’re hiring.”

And fans have lapped up the opportunity to add to the tongue-and-cheek X post.

One joked: “If you do hire him, he might be able to deliver something for a change.”

A second chimed in: “But I heard he doesn’t deliver!”

While another said: “He would definitely double box the pizzas.”

But Southgate’s eligibility for the role can be called into question – he has worked for Domino’s rivals before.

The former Aston Villa and Middlesbrough midfielder appeared in a Pizza Hut advert in 1996.

Stuart Pearce convinced him to take part in the commercial alongside Chris Waddle, who made fun of him throughout the dialogue for missing the crucial penalty in Euro 96.

And this is isn’t the first time Southgate’s managerial career has been subject to trolling from Domino’s.

After England’s subpar performances in Group C last month, the pizza chain posted a hilarious picture of an out-of-control Domino’s kitchen.

One employee could be seen sprawled on the floor as tons of pizzas flew out of an oven.

The caption for the picture read: “If Southgate ran a Domino’s.”
