Lionesses World Cup squad: Who will make the cut in 2027?

England's qualifying campaign for the 2027 Women's World Cup is officially underway. The Lionesses started it with a 6-1 win over Ukraine on Tuesday and will continue their quest to secure a place in Brazil when hosting Iceland on Saturday. As runners-up in 2023, few would not expect Sarina Wiegman's side to achieve as much, but who the manager will choose to represent the European champions in South America is a little less certain.

Will '27 World Cup cycle be Wiegman's last Lionesses dance?

Last month, when Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman was asked if there was concern that her contract situation could prove to be a distraction for England ahead of the 2027 Women's World Cup, she was pretty bullish in her answer. "There is no distraction whatsoever," she responded. "Everyone is really focused on this qualification. I haven't heard anyone in my team or staff that has been occupied with that."

Wiegman confident 'no update' on her future won't 'distract' Lionesses

Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman is confident that the topic of her future with the team will not be a distraction as England begin their bid to qualify for the 2027 Women's World Cup. Wiegman, who has overseen back-to-back European Championship triumphs with the Lionesses, is under contract until the end of next year's tournament and says there is "no update" on any renewal, but that it is not a situation that she believes is concerning her staff or players right now.

Uruguay have produced a glittering array of striking talent over the years, including Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Edinson Cavani. However, it's Oscar Míguez, who played for La Celeste during the 1950 and 1954 tournaments, scoring eight times, who tops the nation's World Cup finals scoring charts. A more modern-day star, in the shape of Fernando Muslera, holds the no.1 spot in the all-time World Cup appearances for Uruguay though, having played 16 times during three tournaments (2010, 2014 and 2018).
