Sarina Wiegman has extended her England Women contract until 2027.

The news comes a day after Wiegman was named best women's coach at The Best FIFA Awards for a record-extending fourth time.

The Dutch boss has enjoyed unprecedented success since taking charge of the Lionesses in September 2021, leading them to Euro glory the following summer.

She also guided England to last summer's World Cup final, where they lost 1-0 to Spain.

In a statement Wiegman said: «I am so happy to have the chance to lead England through to 2027 after an incredible two-and-a-half years.

»Looking forward, we have unfinished business and I know we are capable of even more, although nothing will come easy."
