England's players are gearing up for the start of a new domestic season after winning Euro 2025. In a summer to remember, the Lionesses beat Spain to win the European Championship for a second time in three years. But where do the Lionesses play their club football? Nineteen of the 23-woman squad are with clubs in England's Women's Super League. Anna Moorhouse, Esme Morgan and Jess Carter play in the United States, while midfielder Georgia Stanway is at Bayern Munich.

Premier League clubs could follow the England Lionesses in stopping taking the knee next season amid growing division among anti-racism campaigners over the merits of the symbolic gesture.

When late substitute Chloe Kelly saved England's Euros defence in 103 seconds against Sweden on Thursday night, it proved two things. Firstly, how good the 27-year-old is on the pitch. And secondly, how important her happiness is off the field.

In a display of teamwork and morale, England's substitutes created positive celebrations during their 6-1 victory over Wales, showcasing their strong bond off the pitch.

Captain Leah Williamson reportedly said the Lionesses need to take "responsibility" for their performance. "We lost the game with poor defending one-on-one," she added. "Not good enough with the ball, we weren't good enough."

"That is a really hard decision but I think you know better than anyone as well - sometimes you just have to take that time for yourself."
