Defender has ‘no concerns’ over readiness for tournamentBright replaces injured Leah Williamson as captain
Millie Bright said she has “no concerns at all” about being ready for the World Cup and believes she is slightly ahead of schedule in her recovery from her knee injury.
“The number of minutes I’ve played before this has been ridiculous,” said the England captain. “I feel physically and mentally fresher than I’ve ever felt. Just based on the amount I’ve played it’s been a blessing that I’m recovering. I’ve been putting in the work and I’ll be doing that until the tournament, so I have no concerns at all.”
