The 2025 Women’s Euros are coming up, and England head there as defending champions.
In 2022, the Lionesses were crowned the queens of Europe on home soil by beating Germany in the final at Wembley.

Women’s Euro 2025: Who will England face?
Given all of the groups England could have ended up in, D is arguably the toughest.
The Lionesses have been drawn alongside France, Netherlands and Wales.
Only two progress from each group, so no matter what happens, we will lose one of the main contenders for the title.
England open up their campaign against France before facing the Dutch four days later.
They then face an all-British clash against Wales in the final game of the group stage.

Women’s Euro 2025: What has been said?
Ahead of the tournament, England goalkeeper Mary Earps surprised many by announcing her international retirement.
Lionesses boss Wiegman said: “I’m really disappointed, I want her in my team.
“That must have been a hard decision for her, and so it is for us. Of course there have been conversations, that’s between us, it’s confidential.
“She has done such a great job for England, we’ve had an incredible journey. I really cherish that, that’s where the disappointment comes from. It’s emotional, because we have a relationship and we’ve had lots of highs, some lows too. It makes it hard. I’m sad.
“I try to connect with players in the best possible way. What you hope is that everyone feels good enough, fit enough and ready to come in, but that’s not always the case.
“It’s part of the increased demands on players and development of the game. We have to keep having conversations together.”
