Holland added to Southgate's England backroom team

Steve Holland has been added to Gareth Southgate's backroom team for his spell as interim England manager.

Interim manager Gareth Southgate has confirmed his backroom team for England's October and November fixtures, with Steve Holland becoming first-team coach.

Holland has worked extensively with Southgate over the last three years, having split his day-to-day duties at Chelsea with an assistant manager role with England Under-21s.

Southgate made the step up to take charge of the senior side on Wednesday following Sam Allardyce's controversial departure.

Sammy Lee (assistant manager) and Martyn Margetson (goalkeeping coach) — both Allardyce appointments — will remain in their roles, while Leicester City assistant Craig Shakespeare steps away from the set-up by mutual consent.
