Women’s World Sevens: Man Utd boss Marc Skinner says it will be ‘carnage and fun’.

Skinner says United have not received any backlash from national team coaches who are preparing squads for Euro 2025.

The World Sevens takes place six weeks before the start of the Euros, which begins on 2 July, but international players are likely to be involved.

Asked if she wanted to play, England defender Maya Le Tissier said: “If the gaffer picks me, I will. I would love to play in it! It’s just a bit of fun.”

Norway striker Elisabeth Terland told BBC Sport: “It all fitted in perfectly after the season and after the FA Cup final.

“As a group, we love spending time together. That’s the biggest reason as to why we wanted to do it. Having a few days near Lisbon, playing some football, will be cool.”

England manager Sarina Wiegman said in March it would “not be too bad” as it could help players remain sharp at the end of the season.

“Well if you see now in the calendar for this summer, there is a gap – a gap with no football where players can have a little bit of rest,” she added.

“At the same time, players need to keep going because you want to be at your best for the Euros. There is a gap of no competitive games for a month.

“Of course I’m a bit worried about that because for players coming back from injuries, they want to keep going and get a rhythm.”
