No less than 11 players from Sarina Wiegman's 2022 squad did not travel to Switzerland three summers later, including players such as Mary Earps, Mille Bright, Fran Kirby and Rachel Daly, who had all been key in the Wembley victory.

I don't think doctors would have ever predicted - or anyone would ever predict - that your national goalkeeper has got no depth perception and was born with a squint. I don't think that would have ever come into people's minds that it would be possible. But I think I've just always tried to prove doctors wrong from the get-go when they said that I'm not allowed to play professional sports, and I just wanted to do what made me happy and put the smile on my face.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen wants more playing time For a 33-year-old who wants to head into next summer's World Cup sharp and match-fit, lack of guaranteed minutes is a clear motivator to explore options elsewhere. The three English clubs linked with ter Stegen present contrasting but convincing cases. Man United have just introduced Senne Lammens, who kept a clean sheet on his debut in the 2-0 win over Sunderland, suggesting the club have an eye to the future.

Barnet have signed goalkeeper Cieran Slicker on a season-long loan from Ipswich Town. The 22-year-old won his first senior Scotland cap against Iceland this year.

Mads Hermansen, at 25, was outstanding for Leicester City despite their relegation and has been linked with a move to the Premier League.

"Working with the manager and his coaching staff again was a big draw for me. They've already had a great influence on my career and the gaffer turned me from a man into a professional footballer at Bournemouth."

Fulham has secured Benjamin Lecomte from Montpellier on a two-year contract, adding depth to their goalkeeper unit as they prepare for the Premier League.

Hannah Hampton displayed remarkable composure and agility in the penalty shootout against Sweden, saving two penalties that contributed to England's victory and semi-final advancement.

Bay FC has signed Leah Freeman, a talented first-team All-American goalie, marking her first professional contract. Freeman is excited to join her home club and contribute.

Djordje Petrovic has officially signed with Bournemouth for £25 million. Previously on loan at Strasbourg, he was pivotal in their Europa Conference League qualification.
