Legendary Lioness hero 'tipped for glittering TV career' after Euros 2025 win
This weekend, the mighty Lionesses made footballing history when they won the Euros for the second time. Yet while the UK is busy celebrating the England women's football team's impressive win over favourites Spain at penalties (Maybe they could give the men a few tips?), some people already have an eye on the team's future. Specifically, we do. Yes, the Metro ents team has been wondering which Lioness is most likely to swap the penalty box for the goggle box. So with that in mind, we contacted PaddyPower and asked them to give us the odds on which member of the team is most likely to break into TV. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Lucy Bronze – England's most decorated player at club level and the most experienced member of the Lionesses – is the odds-on favourite to make the leap first. PaddyPower give the 33-year-old 5/4 odds of carving out a career on the small screen. 'Our traders make England legend Lucy Bronze the favourite to swap studs for studio lights,' a PaddyPower spokesperson told Metro. 'And given her glittering career, who would be against her taking her?' It's a good question, although we do wonder whether Lucy – who's considered one of the best players in the game (both men and women) – is ready to hang up her boots just yet. Here is the full list of odds PaddyPower gave Metro… Lucy Bronze – 5/4 Chloe Kelly – 5/2 Ella Toone – 11/2 Alessia Russo – 7/1 Leah Williamson – 8/1 Beth Mead – 12/1 Michelle Agyemang – 16/1 If Lucy's not the only player who could have a glittering career off the pitch. PaddyPower gave Chloe Kelly 5/2 odds, citing her ' iconic celebration at the Euros' as proof that she knows how to work a crowd.' Meanwhile, skipper Leah Williamson, who became a household name when she led the Lionesses to glory at the 2022 Euros, has been given 8/1 odds. Still, the big question is what show might we expect to see the Lionesses pop up on… besides Match of the Day, of course. More Trending Well, PaddyPower gave 4/1 odds on at least one of the teams appearing on Celebrity Traitors (Who wouldn't want to see the team go from killing it on the pitch, to literally killing in Claudia's castle?) while it's 9/2 that they'll go on Celeb SAS. Here is the full list of odds PaddyPower gave Metro… 4/1 for any Lioness to appear on Celeb Traitors 9/2 for any Lioness to appear on Celeb SAS 5/1 for any Lioness to appear on I'm A Celeb 5/1 1 for any Lioness to appear on Strictly 6/1 for any Lioness to appear on Dancing on Ice Interestingly, according to PaddyPower, it's more likely for one of the team to join Ant and Dec in the jungle for I'm A Celeb than it is for them to go on Strictly. Then again, with how gruelling the Strictly training regime supposedly is, perhaps the Lionesses are better off chomping on creepy crawlies than tangoing with Vito and his pals. Got a story?
