Gareth Southgate insists he would relish another England vs Scotland showdown at the Euros next summer.

The home nations clashed at the last European Championships as the teams battled to a 0-0 draw at Wembley.

Scotland welcomed England to Hampden this year for 150th anniversary clash, but ahead of the draw for the Euros, Southgate is thirsty for more of the derby fixture.

He said: “Always for the fans, those games (with Scotland) have that extra edge, don’t they? But from our own perspective, we’re just content with whatever comes out and we just have to deal with it.”

Meanwhile, Southgate says England will be away from the tournament hubbub next summer with plans in place for a quiet European Championship base camp.

Monday’s 1-1 draw in North Macedonia rubber-stamped the Euro 2020 runners-up a place among the top seeds in the December 2 draw in Hamburg.

Southgate will be in attendance for a draw that will not only provide clarity on opposition and pathways but where England will be based during their stay in Germany.

This tournament is being regionalised for sustainability purposes, with priority given to teams whose preferred base camps are closer to their match venues.

England have registered their interest in a number of options across Germany and Southgate suggests their base will be off the beaten path.

“Really somewhere where we can be a little bit on our own,” he said looking ahead to his fourth major tournament in charge.

“We need that nice contrast of relaxation and areas where we can work.

“You want to minimise travel where you can but we are really, within the FA, our staff are really good at picking those venues that I think the players will enjoy and will feel comfortable in.

“You basically want to be somewhere where everything that’s going on around you, you can zone out from really but somewhere with facilities that are good for working.”
