Former Chelsea manager on adjusting to life and work in the US, what she’s looking forward to in this summer’s Euros and pining for roast chickenHi Emma, you seem like you’ve taken to the US like a duck to water. But what food or drink from back home are you missing? Antony, Staffordshire I always miss a roast dinner, roast chicken. And the milk. The milk is different over there so when you have a cup of tea, it’s just not the same because the milk is not the same. It alters the quality of the tea so, listen, that’s tough for me.How’s life in America been treating you? Is the infrastructure for women’s football noticeably more developed there? And the million-dollar question: what happens when your new team face England in the World Cup final in 2027? Tom Stubbs, BrusselsFirst of all, I love being there. The cultural approach to the girls’ and women’s game is more ingrained in the US, because they’ve been doing it for longer in terms of providing opportunities. That’s noticeable, an...

3 d. ago Euro 2025 is sure to showcase just how far women’s football has come | Emma Hayes

England, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands are the teams to beat but the tournament in Switzerland will be incredibly tightYou only have to wind the clock back two full major-tournament cycles, to Euro 2017, and there were no fully professional women’s leagues in Europe. Thanks to increased investment in the women’s game, there are now more than 3,000 full-time female players across the continent, and that professionalisation is why my overriding feeling about this summer’s Euros is that the quality is going to be so much higher than we have seen before. And it will be so tight.In Spain, England and Germany there are three strong favourites who are all capable of going on to win it and I would add the Netherlands to the top four. I was so impressed when we [the United States] played the Dutch in December. They will need everybody fit but, on their day, they are a top side. Beyond that, this tournament is going to show the prowess of the Nations League, which was introduced since th...

Spain’s icon, the world’s best female player, discusses her journey back from injury and going to the Euros to compete for ‘the trophy we are missing’‘It wasn’t my knee that hurt, it was my soul,” the Queen says, but now she is back. There is a look in Alexia Putellas’s eye, a light. “You know that feeling, that sense of security when it’s like you’re capable of anything?” the double Ballon d’Or winner says, leaning forward on a sofa at Spain’s Las Rozas HQ.“At that moment, I felt it. And now I’ve got that feeling once again. I’m happy; the desire for these Euros is huge. I can’t wait to start, to go and give my everything.” And Alexia Putellas’s everything is everything.

9 d. ago Wales women head for Euro 2025 wanting to scale heights and leave legacy

Undaunted by being drawn in a formidable group, Rhian Wilkinson’s side go to Switzerland determined to create opportunities for girls back homeThe rain cascading down on the Vale of Glamorgan is so heavy, so incessant, that the hotel’s reception has run out of umbrellas for guests to borrow and frustrated golfers crowd the lobby. Only two sets of residents seem oblivious to the weather; those heading to the spa and the Wales Women squad. It is late May and with Rhian Wilkinson’s players flying to Switzerland for Euro 2025 at the end of June far too much is at stake for anyone wearing a national tracksuit to be at a loose end.Charlie Estcourt has travelled to the sprawling Vale Resort from the United States where she plays for Washington’s DC Power, but the midfielder is not about to succumb to jet lag. Instead, she is focused on impressing Wilkinson as the team trains at the Welsh’s FA’s centre of excellence within the hotel’s verdant grounds. “We have a no-excuses culture now,” say...
