Tuesday's briefing: Carter unstoppable as Lionesses target a place in final

Manchester United and Liverpool have been splashing the cash ahead of the new Premier League season, while Rangers are also looking to make a statement in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League. England at full strength for Italy showdown Leah Williamson is set to shrug off injury to play for England against Italy (Nick Potts/PA) Sarina Wiegman has suggested captain Leah Williamson will be fit for England's Euro 2025 semi-final against Italy and said Jess Carter is 'ready to perform' after the defender revealed she had been the target of racist abuse. There were concerns about centre-back Williamson's fitness after she rolled her ankle in extra time of Thursday's dramatic last-eight shoot-out victory over Sweden, but the Arsenal defender – alongside every other member of the squad – trained with the team on Monday morning. Carter, in a statement shared to her accounts on several platforms on Sunday, said she would be 'taking a step back' from social media, while Football Association CEO Mark Bullingham confirmed his organisation has involved UK police. Asked if she expected to have a full complement available for the semi in Geneva, England boss Wiegman said: 'That's what it looks like, yeah.' Meanwhile FIFA chief Gianni Infantino says he is 'deeply saddened' by racist abuse directed at Carter and promised FIFA will share data with the relevant authorities to identify the culprits.

Barry Ferguson breaks silence after leaving Rangers and plays down claims by own staff that players couldn't hack it
FORMER Rangers boss Barry Ferguson has dismissed suggestions by his own staff that the players couldn't cope with the pressure at Ibrox. Ferguson took over on an interim basis after Philippe Clement was sacked in February last season, and was tasked with rejuvenating a beleaguered Rangers team trailing Celtic by 13 points. 3 Former Rangers boss Barry Ferguson Credit: Alamy 3 Neil McCann and Billy Dodds, Rangers Credit: Willie Vass 3 Ferguson in training Credit: Kenny Ramsay Ferguson brought in Neil McCann, Billy Dodds and Allan McGregor as part of his backroom staff but, despite reaching the Europa League quarter-finals, they finished 17 points behind champions Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. Since then a new era has been ushered in at Ibrox and the club is under American ownership with Russell Martin appointed as the new boss. In his first interview since leaving Rangers, Ferguson admitted there were a "few bumps along the road but he loved every minute of it". He also disputed claims from his assistant Dodds who, after exiting the club, told the BBC that the majority of players at Rangers couldn't cope with the pressure. Dodds said: "When you go to a club, you tend to find that 30% of signings are not right and 70% are, and that 70% pulls the 30 along. But at Rangers it was probably the opposite. "Too many players you could see going into their shell. "You could see there was no response either in their eyes or in their brain - they couldn't handle going behind." Ferguson now back as a pundit on Go Radio said on Monday: "Everybody has got their opinions. "I just think the squad need a little bit of help and I'm sure Russell knows, that's why he's trying to make these signings which will hopefully kick on. "I can only say my piece, when I went in there, the guys were brilliant to work with, they gave me everything and that's all I asked. Rangers boss Russell Martin opens up on transfer plans as he delivers updates on Dessers and Igamane "There are always going to be players that leave that's always the case at Rangers and Celtic - money talks. "There's a lot of talk about [Hamza] Igamane even [Cyriel] Dessers so we will just need to wait and see over the next few weeks. "There are definitely a lot of good players there, there is no doubt about it. "And, added in with the quality that the new manager has brought in, you've got to be optimistic with the season ahead." Ferguson had used the time off to "recharge the batteries" and spend time with the family. He also revealed he's had offers from Scotland, England and abroad to go back into management but turned them down. Asked what he thought of Martin at Rangers, he said: "I think Russell Martin is a very good appointment if you watch they way his teams play. "I think the Rangers fans will enjoy his approach to it. "I spoke to him a few weeks ago and I was very impressed by him and I'll get right behind him and I hope he's a very successful Rangers manager. "I think it's important he's allowed time but I think he's a manager that has got huge potential." Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
