💨 Abstract

England's star defender Millie Bright withdrew from the 2025 European Championship, citing mental and physical exhaustion. Bright, a key player in England's 2022 Euro victory and 2023 World Cup runner-up, stressed that "stepping back is the right thing for [her] health and the team." England coach Sarina Wiegman had planned to discuss Bright's availability after her absence from recent camps.
