WORLD CUP BID DRIVING FORCE FOR WIEGMAN
Daily Star
|January 26, 2026
SARINA WIEGMAN says World Cup glory is her “driving force” as she sets her sights on even more success with the Lionesses.
England boss Wiegman received the Football Writers’ Association's Tribute Award last night as recognition for her remarkable achievements in winning back-to-back Euros and being an honorary Dame.
Wiegman, 56, is “proud and grateful” to receive the trophy which has been given to some of football's great names, including Dennis Bergkamp, Sir Gareth Southgate and Jose Mourinho.
But Wiegman says she is already dreaming of more success at next year's World Cup in Brazil and the chance of going one better as England lost the final in 2023.
