Sarina Wiegman says she hopes this summer's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand will 'inspire people, whoever you are, to come and play football'.
"That will help too, but then it's not so for tomorrow," Wiegman said.The hope is that Millie Bright - replacing injured Leah Williamson as captain - will be allowed to wear a One Love multicoloured armband to highlight LGBTQ+ rights in Australia and New Zealand."I think FIFA wants to solve it and I trust them in that," Wiegman said."I think it's going to be solved before we start the tournament.
Going into the World Cup there is pressure on the reigning European champions not just to reach the final - as Wiegman achieved as Netherlands manager at the 2019 World Cup - but to land the Lionesses' first world title. "We all have a dream," Wiegman told Sky News."We go there to get the highest level we can and to get as far as possible."Beth Mead's ruptured anterior cruciate ligament couldn't be risked - despite being the top scorer at Euro 2022.Bethany England is back in the squad for the first time since last year after a switch from Chelsea to Tottenham in January produced the goals to earn a recall.
But the spate of ACL injuries among female players is a concern, with most boots originally designed for men. "Every ACL that occurs you need to have a look at that individual - but also what's happened in the pathway in the academies, the scheduling, daily schedules, the support for the player," Wiegman said.
