FA chief gives Sarina Wiegman contract update after Euro 2025 success

The head of the Football Association hailed the leadership of England Women manager Sarina Wiegman but said it was too early to discuss whether talks over a new contract have begun. FA chief executive Mark Bullingham labelled Wiegman's leadership as 'incredible' and promised that contract talks would take place 'at an appropriate time'. Wiegman masterminded her third successive European Championship triumph with Sunday's penalty shoot-out success over Spain to ensure England retained the trophy they won for the first time in 2022. The Dutch coach is contracted to the Football Association until after the 2027 World Cup. FA chief executive Bullingham told BBC Sport: 'She's an incredible person, incredible coach and incredible leader. 'We're very lucky to have her, proud to have her as part of the team and obviously she will be working with us for the World Cup.' Pressed on when contract talks would take place, Bullingham said: 'It's a bit early for that. 'We are delighted she is with us for the World Cup and we will have that conversation at an appropriate time. 'She is an incredible manager and we're delighted to be working with her, so that has to be up to her. We will have those conversations when they're ready to go.' Wiegman, 55, has been England head coach since 2021 and guided the team to two European Championship titles and a runners-up finish at the 2023 World Cup. After Sunday's final, Wiegman said: 'I have been here four years and it just feels like my home away from home. 'I always enjoy it when I'm at work, when I'm in England. 'It is just the people, the sporting culture. 'I really love the sporting culture and the fans, of course. 'It is the connection I have with the people; we are very, very close. The people at the FA, with everyone.' When asked if she had 'fallen in love' with England, she added: 'Yes, I have. 'Otherwise, I would not be sitting here with such a smile on my face.'

LAFC adds M Mathieu Choiniere on loan from Swiss club

July 28 - Los Angeles FC acquired midfielder Mathieu Choiniere on loan from GC Zurich of the Swiss Super League in a loan that runs through the 2025 calendar year. Choiniere, 26, has plenty of familiarity with MLS as a Canada native who came up through CF Montreal's youth system. In 119 appearances (89 starts) with CF Montreal from 2018-24, the two-time MLS All-Star scored 11 goals with 10 assists. In 17 games (eight starts) in Switzerland, he scored one goal. Choiniere also has 17 appearances with Canada's national team, including three in this summer's CONCACAF Gold Cup. "Mathieu is a proven performer in our league whose experience, intelligence, and versatility in midfield will be a tremendous asset to our group," LAFC general manager John Thorrington said in a release. "We're thrilled to welcome him to LAFC as we strengthen our roster in pursuit of more trophies." --Field Level Media
